President Donald Trump presented an initiative called "Freedom Haulers" on Thursday (July 30) which aims to place military veterans in trucking jobs considering their previous driving experience.
During an event outside the White House, Trump said former military members with heavy truck driving experience would be "automatically eligible for a commercial driver’s license."
POTUS also said the plan was in line with his strategy to remove undocumented migrants from the American roads and explained 28,000 commercial driver’s licenses "unlawfully issued to illegal aliens" had been cancelled.
