"ALBANY — The federal government and New York State agreed Saturday on a more secure driver’s license system that would permit residents to travel to Canada without a passport while keeping alive — but delaying — the Spitzer administration’s plan to allow illegal immigrants to obtain licenses.

The deal — reached after weeks of intense criticism of Gov. Eliot L. Spitzer’s policy on illegal immigrants — calls for three different driver’s licenses to enable the state to comply with federal security mandates adopted after the 2001 terrorist attacks."
