Illegal aliens in New York could score billions in Medicaid and college-tuition money along with drivers licenses, voting rights and even the ability to run for office if Democrats win control of the state Senate in November, the Post has learned.

A little-known bill, dubbed New York is Home, would offer the most sweeping amnesty available anywhere in the country to nearly 3 million noncitizens living in the Empire State.

It would bar police from releasing any information about them to the feds, unless it involves a criminal warrant unrelated to their immigration status.

Under the proposed legislation, undocumented immigrants could also apply for professional licenses and serve on juries.

The plan hinges on Democrats who now control both the governorship and the state Assembly wresting control of the Senate from Republicans, who oppose immigration amnesty.

Bronx Sen. Gustavo Rivera, who is sponsoring the legislation in the upper chamber, said he thinks the bill would be in position to be passed if we have a stable Democratic majority in the Senate.

He also likened his measure to the campaigns to legalize same-sex marriage and medical marijuana.

Its something I believe in, Rivera said Sunday night. Its something the state can do and should do.

Democratic Brooklyn Assemblyman Karim Camara, the chief Assembly sponsor, agreed that taking the Senate was key, saying The bill would have a better shot at passing with a Democratic Senate.

I look forward [to] having a robust conversation about how significant this bill is.
