- On Sunday, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned he will pull $160 million from California and could revoke its CDL issuing authority, saying, `So, one, I'm about to pull $160 million from California`, Duffy said on `Sunday Morning Futures`.
- Last month, the U.S. Department of Transportation tightened noncitizen CDL requirements after three fatal crashes, triggering a nationwide commercial driver's license audit that found improperly issued licenses in California and other states.
- Duffy says 60,000 people are driving with improper licenses, and he said California wrongly issued 25% of 145 licenses reviewed last month.
- The federal government gave California a 30-day compliance deadline, and Duffy earlier this month threatened to withhold $160 million due to enforcement failures.
- California defended its practices and a Newsom spokesperson said its CDL holders have a lower crash rate than national and Texas averages.
