CA Losing $160M Over Driver’s Licenses For Immigrants

U.S. transportation officials say California will lose $160 million for delaying the revocations of 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses for immigrants. The state notified those drivers in the fall that they would lose their licenses after a federal audit found problems, including licenses for truckers and bus drivers that remained valid long visas' expirations. But then last week California said it would delay until March after immigrant groups sued over concerns that some groups were unfairly targeted. The state DMV said California officials believed the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration was open to the delay while it completed its review. But federal agency told the state Wednesday that it never agreed to postpone the revocations.
