White House border czar Tom Homan stated that law enforcement is actively working at weigh stations to locate nearly 200,000 non-U.S. citizens with CDLs despite their illegal entry into the U.S. <\/p>\n<p>The administration has targeted states that have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/georgia-senate-rejects-education-bill-for-illegals\/\" title=\"Georgia Senate Rejects Education Bill for Illegals\">allowed illegal immigrants<\/a> to acquire CDLs, citing a recent fatal crash involving an illegal immigrant CDL driver in Pennsylvania.DHS officials criticized the release of the driver by Massachusetts, a sanctuary state, which issued him a CDL. Approximately 28,000 licenses have been revoked, though efforts are hindered by some states refusing to share CDL databases with federal authorities. <\/p>\n<p>homan criticized Democratic-led states like New York and Massachusetts for blocking cooperation, emphasizing ongoing legal actions to access needed facts.Additionally, Homan condemned Gov.
