President Donald Trump’s administration announced a “historic” crackdown on trucking fraud during a news conference in Detroit on Monday.<\/p>\n
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the move alongside Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, saying tens of thousands of illegal drivers’ licenses were issued under former President Joe Biden’s administration.<\/p>\n
Duffy noted that millions of illegal immigrants were allowed into the country under the previous administration and many were granted commercial drivers’ licenses, with many of them not even able to speak English.<\/p>\n

The administration is shutting down 110 driving schools that were the “greatest offenders” in granting drivers’ licenses to illegal immigrants, as well as 160 additional schools that Duffy says lacked proper space for driving tests or had unlicensed instructors.<\/p>\n
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration chief Derek Barrs said each of the 110 schools being shut down passed at least 10 drivers who were “subsequently cited for English language proficiency during roadside inspections by law enforcement.”<\/p>\n

Barrs went on to cite multiple examples where drivers who were illegally granted licenses killed people in crashes while on the job.<\/p>\n
“It’s unacceptable. When you see people die on the road you don’t forget that, and it starts right here with what I’m talking about,” Barrs said.<\/p>\n

“Our investigators went into 400 driver training schools and we found that 40% of these that we investigated did not meet the rules and the requirements of our regulations,” he added.<\/p>\n

Mullin added that illegal immigrants with CDLs have been a major factor in immigration enforcement under the Trump administration, saying that Immigration and Customs Enforcement found over 100 individuals who had been granted CDLs, “and literally on the CDLs it said, \u2018No name given.'”<\/p>\n

“These individuals are dangerous, and because of the failure from the previous administration, from the Biden administration, they’ve killed hundreds of people. And unfortunately, injured thousands,” Mullin said.<\/p>\n
