## Resource

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy’s bold new “Freedom Haulers” initiative aims to replace undocumented truck drivers with American veterans, offering six-figure careers, full training, and medical benefits—all while cracking down on improperly issued commercial licenses across states like New York and California. With military driving experience as the selling point, this two-pronged push targets road safety and veteran employment, turning the trucking industry into a patriotic pathway.
