#new President Trump Puts American Veterans First: Military Truck Experience Now Automatic Path to CDL as Illegals Get Booted from Trucking Jobs #veterans This comes as Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy finalized rules to block most non-domiciled foreign drivers (migrants) from obtaining or keeping CDLs, citing safety threats after multiple de*dly crashes involving illegal migrants. #truckers The policy limits eligibility to specific visa holders like H-2A, H-2B, and E-2 after vetting, ends reliance on Employment Authorization Documents (EADs), and enforces English proficiency. #englishlearning Veterans with recent experience operating military vehicles equivalent to Class A or B commercial motor vehicles can waive the CDL skills (road) test in all 51 states under FMCSA rules, often saving thousands in training.
