Circumventing the state's law for promulgating regulations, Governor Heineman announced in a 2013 press release that DACA recipients were ineligible for driver's licenses in Nebraska. The lawsuit, which was filed on June 11, 2013, was brought on behalf of four named plaintiffs, all young immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children and are DACA recipients.
