- Trump looks to veterans to fill trucking jobs after booting immigrants from industry
President Donald Trump announced an initiative to help veterans obtain commercial driver’s licenses, expanding a waiver period and creating a fast-track program. The policy follows the administration’s decision to pause license renewals for foreign-born truck drivers, resulting in the cancellation of about 28,000 licenses. The industry faces a shortage of 60,000 to 80,000 drivers.
