The Washington State Department of Licensing is conducting an inquiry on how an illegal immigrant obtained a commercial driver’s license, as the question after a deadly accident in Florida was a question in which three people were killed last Tuesday.
The case has debated the state licensed loopol and debate on immigration enforcement, questioning that non -mentors can still obtain a commercial driver’s licenses without legal status.
A spokesperson told Fox News Digital in an email on Thursday, “The license department is investigating the release of 2023 of the former commercial driver license of Mr. Singh. At the moment I am not at the moment when the investigation will be completed, nor what we can issue,” a spokesman told Fox News Digital in an email on Thursday.
The suspect, Harjinder Singh, illegally entered the United States on the southern border in 2018, but was denied the authority in 2020 to work by the first Trump administration. Nevertheless, he was able to obtain a commercial driver’s license in California, according to Homeland Security.

“during [Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s] Interview with the driver, investigators administered an English language proficiency (ELP) evaluation as per FMCSA guidance, “DOT said in a statement.” The driver failed the evaluation, providing correct reactions to only 2 out of 12 oral questions and identified 1 of only 4 highways. ,

“Hey, Genius: The Federal Government (Trump Admin) has already confirmed that the man meets federal and state immigration requirements – you have issued a work permit (EAD) to him. As usual, the Trump administration is either lying or clouped,” Newsom’s press office posted at the beginning of this week.
“False. Harjinder Singh is illegally in the United States and his functioning authority was rejected under the Trump Administration on 14 September 2020. It was later approved on 9 June 2021 under the Biden administration. California state issues licenses to commercial drivers. There is no national CDL.

“As the state driver issues licenses, they also issue a commercial driver’s license (CDL). States are not considered to issue CDL to a person unless they are American citizens or legitimate permanent residents (green card holders). There is a flaw to issue a CDL for a state that is authorized to work only in America,” a statement is mentioned in a statement.
“Note that the Trump (45) administration refused Harjinder Singh’s application for the Affairs Authority, but the Biden administration later provided his request. It could be sufficient to take advantage of this CDL flaws in an interested state,” the expert continued.
