Trump Proposes Replacing Immigrant Truck Drivers with Veterans

President Donald Trump announced a new proposal targeting the trucking industry. He says immigrant drivers should be replaced by U.S. military veterans. The plan builds on his earlier push to limit commercial licenses for immigrants. He includes both undocumented and legal resident drivers in the proposal. Trump has blamed immigrant drivers for a rise in traffic crashes. The administration argues that veterans are qualified for trucking jobs. If adopted, the policy could reshape hiring practices in freight transport. Watch for potential regulatory or legislative steps to implement the change.
