The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is no longer allowing residents of New York state to enroll in Global Entry and other trusted traveler programs, acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf announced on Feb. 5.

The move stems from New York state’s recently passed law that lets illegal immigrants apply for driver’s licenses without providing a Social Security number.
