Sean Duffy Details How He Could Hammer California For Giving Illegal Aliens CDLs Following Fatal Wreck

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Thursday night that he could prohibit California from issuing commercial driver licenses (CDL) if the state continued to grant them to illegal immigrants.

An illegal immigrant driving a tractor-trailer killed three people in an accident near Ontario, California, on Tuesday while allegedly driving under the influence of drugs. The Transportation Department accused California on Thursday of ignoring stricter guidelines for non-citizens applying for CDLs issued in September.

“Well, in regard to our rules, I already took $40 million from the state of California,” Duffy said during the appearance on “Hannity.” “I am doing a quick review of their lack of compliance with our rules. I have the ability and I’m going to pull almost another $160 million, and then I have the ability… to say, ‘Listen, if you don’t follow any of these rules that keep Americans safe, we’re going to revoke your ability to issue a commercial driver’s license.”
