Republican Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona is leading the charge to end a deadly loophole that has claimed American lives for far too long – illegal aliens obtaining commercial driver's licenses and getting behind the wheel of massive 18-wheelers.
The Arizona conservative is introducing new legislation that would crack down on the practice of handing out CDLs to people who have no legal right to be in this country, let alone operate commercial vehicles on our highways. It's about time someone stood up for the safety of law-abiding Americans.
"We've witnessed too many preventable deaths inflicted by illegal alien truck drivers who obtained CDLs in blue states that seemingly ignore citizenship and work requirements," Biggs said, highlighting a crisis that mainstream media refuses to cover honestly.
Biden's Deadly Legacy
The tragic death toll was supercharged by the Biden administration's open border policies, which allowed millions of illegal aliens to flood into America over just four years. While Biden and his radical allies virtue-signaled about "compassion," American families were paying the ultimate price on our nation's roads.
Blue state politicians have been complicit in this travesty, rubber-stamping CDL applications without proper verification of citizenship or work authorization. They've turned our transportation system into a free-for-all that puts profits and political correctness above public safety.
This isn't just about paperwork – it's about American lives. Every preventable accident caused by an unlicensed illegal alien driver represents a failure of our system to protect citizens first.
Trump Era Accountability
With President Trump back in office and Republicans controlling Congress, patriots like Biggs finally have the opportunity to restore sanity to our immigration and transportation policies. This legislation represents exactly the kind of common-sense reform Americans voted for in November.
The question isn't whether we can afford to implement these protections – it's whether we can afford not to. How many more American families must suffer because politicians prioritized illegal aliens over citizens?
It's time to put America First on our highways, just like everywhere else.
