Today, Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability Chairman Josh Brecheen (R-OK) announced a hearing for Wednesday, March 4, at 2 p.m. to examine the issuance of non-domiciled commercial driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.
“Granting commercial driver’s licenses to people who have violated our immigration laws, and in many cases, can’t read traffic signs in English, raises serious safety concerns," said Brecheen. "Tragically, we have seen the death or injury of innocent Americans due to this practice. In his State of the Union address, President Trump highlighted the incident involving Dalilah Coleman, a first-grader who suffered severe brain injuries resulting from a car accident caused by a driver who had crossed the border illegally under the Biden administration. This is a matter of saving lives. This hearing will provide an important opportunity for local, state, and federal leaders to address this risk and work together to better protect American roads.”
Testifying will be:
- Tim Tipton: Commissioner, Oklahoma Department of Public Safety
- Richard Del Toro Jr.: Sheriff, St. Lucie County, Florida
- Wendy Liu: Attorney, Public Citizen Litigation Group
The hearing will be livestreamed on YouTube and will be open to the public.
