💨 Abstract

The federal government has identified issues with commercial driver's licenses issued to immigrants in eight states, following several fatal crashes involving undocumented drivers. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy threatened to withhold federal funds from California, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and New York due to lapses in verifying immigration status and enforcing English language requirements. California revoked over 21,000 licenses after confirming problems, while other states like Texas, South Dakota, Colorado, and Washington also face scrutiny and potential funding cuts.
