St. George, Utah • Police at Dixie State University are offering people in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program and others fingerprinting services — a required step to secure driving privileges in Utah.
Police at the St. George campus decided to offer the service after the American Civil Liberties Union of Utah reached out to them, The Spectrum reported last week.
“We noticed that getting your fingerprints done for a drivers privilege card was something that people weren’t able to do in Washington County,” said Sydni Makemo, an ACLU representative.
The closest provider of fingerprinting was located in neighboring Iron County, so the organization contacted multiple law enforcement agencies in the area.
