Many illegals are brought here and housed without CDL's i might add during the harvest to drive semi trucks to haul sugarcane across the South as we know from Sept - Jan.
New DOT law mandates that if you cant speak English, you cant drive big trucks in the U.S. at all. Also with "America team sweep" of illegals being sent back to their countries, will these illegals that come to drive for the Sugar Mills each year even be allowed to enter country this year? Looks like the Sugar Mills gonna need drivers.

Legal citizens will drive?

They have guest worker permits and they leave after harvest. I think the trucks are exempt from typical CDL laws if used for farming. They also dont bring entire families with them. I have no problem with a guest worker program as long as they leave after harvest

It's not a new law it's just never been enforced.

Who will tow all of the shitty vehicles across the country and over the Southern border?

Is the trucking business still down from the peak a couple years ago?
What do those hispanics on special work permits get paid? From a simple cost perspective, I'm curious how much an American would cost? Everyone wants to suggest its like $2000 a day more. But what is the actual cost?

Oh no, You'll have to pay a higher wage to attract American workers who live here.... instead of importing 3rd world frickwads who wreck all the time and don't leave our country.
The horror!!!

Which should have been a law all along.

Those mills need to get the frick fined out of them for each illegal hired, just like any business which hires illegals should get.

The sugarcane farmers can’t really lose. The government is always there with a handout.
