How about 15 states that issue driver's licences - New York has a law that prohibits state Department of Motor Vehicles officials from providing data to agencies that enforce immigration law unless a judge orders it. New York cut off database access to at least three federal agencies when the law went into effect.
Seems such laws violate 8 U.S. Code § 1373 as such seems federal funding to these states could be denied.
