 Welcome to your weekly DOT Dispatch, where we cut through the noise to spotlight what's shaking up transportation. This week, the biggest headline blaring from the U.S. Department of Transportation is Secretary Sean P. Duffy's fiery crackdown on states issuing illegal commercial driver's licenses to foreign drivers. FMCSA press releases detail audits exposing over 50% of New York's non-domiciled CDLs as bogus, one-third in Minnesota, and violations in Colorado, Pennsylvania, and beyond. Duffy didn't mince words: "If Colorado does not immediately pull these licenses and come into compliance, the state will lose $24 million in federal highway funds," with Pennsylvania facing $75 million on the line and options to decertify entire programs.

This enforcement blitz builds on sweeping policy shifts from Duffy's January order, rolling back prior regs for cost-benefit focus, ditching DEI mandates, and tying funding to immigration compliance and Buy America rules, per Holland & Knight analysis. FMCSA also axed nearly 3,000 shady CDL training providers, overhauled Electronic Logging Device vetting to slash fatigue crashes, and pledged training for one million responders during Crash Responder Safety Week.

For American citizens, safer roads mean fewer deadly wrecks from unqualified drivers—think reduced fatigue and foreign license scams. Businesses, especially trucking fleets, gain from streamlined ELDs cutting costs and a scrapped speed limiter mandate, but must prep for October's MC-to-USDOT number switch and stricter non-domiciled CDL checks. States like Colorado and New York risk massive funding hits, forcing quick revocations within 30 days or facing audits. No big international ripples yet, but border rail crews now need English proficiency.

Duffy announced $33 million in university grants for innovation, $1 billion for safer roads, and $2 billion for U.S.-made transit buses. Watch mid-2025 for FMCSA's full Safety Measurement System launch refining enforcement.

Citizens, report suspicious CDLs via FMCSA hotlines. Dive deeper at transportation.gov or fmcsa.dot.gov.
