Originally Published 4 months ago — by CBS News
The Trump administration has threatened to withhold federal funding from California, Washington, and New Mexico due to their failure to enforce new English language requirements for truck drivers, following a deadly Florida crash involving an illegal immigrant trucker. The administration emphasizes safety concerns, arguing that truckers must understand road signs and communicate effectively, but the states criticize the move as politically motivated. The incident has sparked debate over immigration, safety, and regulatory enforcement.
