flag Minnesota’s CDL law for undocumented immigrants drew GOP criticism after a wrong-way truck incident, but Walz defended safety records and driver accountability.

flag Minnesota Governor Tim Walz faced Republican scrutiny during a House hearing over a state law allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs), with Congressman Scott Perry citing a Missouri incident involving a Minnesota-licensed trucker driving in the wrong direction. flag Perry claimed the law endangered public safety and questioned Walz’s accountability, while Walz emphasized Minnesota’s top-tier highway safety record, stating that driver safety is independent of immigration status and that all drivers must follow traffic laws. flag The trucker held a valid CDL and failed an English test, but federal officials did not confirm their immigration status. flag The exchange highlighted ongoing partisan divisions over state immigration policies and public safety.
