Two national public employee unions sue Trump over immigrant drivers license crackdown

The unions argued these restrictions would prevent asylum seekers, refugees and DACA recipients from accessing commercial driver's licenses.



Two national public employee unions sued the Trump administration over its restrictions preventing illegal immigrants from obtaining commercial drivers licenses.


The American Federation of Teachers and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees filed a petition for review against the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

The employee unions challenged a rule implemented by Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy restricting foreign individuals from receiving commercial drivers licenses.

Commercial drivers licenses are used for operating large vehicles such as tractor-trailers and buses. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia allow unauthorized immigrants to receive commercial drivers licenses.

In California, more than 25% of commercial drivers' licenses were improperly issued, according to a Department of Transportation press release.

neither one of them should have standing.

Also none of those people they mentioned should have CDLs

If they were granting teaching credentials to illegals, or putting them in government jobs, these unions would be calling ICE

They don’t care about safety, the law, or if people die. If it’s tied to Trump in any way, they have to oppose it, even if their opposition is completely illogical.

Theoretically, non US bus drivers won’t be able to get CDLs to drive a bus.

Sorry!

Not if the illegal teachers were paying dues into the union.

They are nothing more than money whores.

This. A CDL driver must be qualified. Speaking English, knowing road laws and being able to read signs in English is paramount. Feeling bad for them or immigration issues is not a reason to grant them a license.

How many of these “illegals” with CDLs use them to register to VOTE! Just take a guess. That’s more important than union dues to these politicians.

These teachers unions make all of the normal hard working teachers feel embarrassed. I'm so happy that I never joined one during my 35 year career.
