California's decision to delay license cancellations protects thousands of immigrant truckers who were unfairly targeted due to federal pressure and state database errors. Many drivers had valid work permits but received cancellation notices because outdated documentation led to mismatches, and the state was blocked from issuing corrected licenses. Sean Duffy, who once understood that Congress, not the president, controls federal funding, has now flip-flopped due to his hatred of immigrants.
California has no legitimate extension to keep illegally issued, unvetted foreign trucker licenses active past the Jan. 5 deadline. The state continues breaking federal law and endangering public safety by allowing thousands of commercial drivers without proper legal status to operate on American roads, resulting in Californian taxpayers losing nearly $160 million. California politicians care more about punishing immigration enforcers than criminal illegal aliens.
