Florida lawmakers are proposing a new bill targeting commercial vehicle drivers without legal immigration status. The bill, sponsored by State Senator Don Gaetz, aims to impose stricter penalties on both drivers and employing companies. If passed, drivers found operating commercial vehicles without legal status would be handed over to federal authorities, and companies could face a ban from doing business in Florida. This legislative push comes after a fatal crash involving an illegal immigrant driver, sparking a national discussion on immigration and commercial licensing.
