I will keep fighting to ensure we pass laws that keep illegal foreigners from getting behind the wheel of 80,000-pound trucks on American roads. It’s why I am working to pass the Dalilah Law, named in honor of Dalilah Coleman, to restrict CDLs for illegal aliens and mandate English-only CDL testing.

Tiffany committed to keep fighting to pass laws preventing illegal immigrants from obtaining commercial driver's licenses, including working to pass the Dalilah Law.

Evidence

legacy_unverified · Source version not recorded · locator unknown

DHS announced an ICE HSI tipline for CDL fraud and said federal partners, including DOT, would crack down because illegal aliens had been granted CDLs. DHS cited recent enforcement, including Operation Highway Shield removing more than 800 truckers from the roads, including 51 illegal aliens.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Latest lookback-window evidence shows active enforcement against illegal or fraudulent CDL issuance/use, but the need for a fraud tipline and continued removals indicates implementation and cleanup are still ongoing rather than conclusively complete in practice.

FMCSA issued a final rule amending state commercial licensing regulations. The rule limits eligibility for non-domiciled CLPs and CDLs to foreign-domiciled individuals with specific, verifiable employment-based nonimmigrant status, and says the rule closes a safety gap in CDL issuance.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The final FMCSA rule directly restricts states from issuing non-domiciled CDLs to people without qualifying lawful employment-based status, which substantially delivers the core policy goal at the federal regulatory level, though it is not a statutory enactment by Congress.

FMCSA issued a 2026 final rule restricting state issuance of non-domiciled CLPs and CDLs to foreign-domiciled individuals with specific, verifiable lawful employment-based nonimmigrant status, which substantially ends lawful state issuance of these commercial licenses to people lacking lawful eligible status. DHS enforcement and fraud-cleanup evidence shows implementation is still being policed, but the core federal policy outcome was delivered while Tiffany remained in federal office. The delivery was regulatory rather than a Tiffany-enacted statute, so candidate-specific credit is limited, but the promised outcome itself was achieved in the same-term federal context.
