The White House has slammed the state of California for issuing a commercial vehicle licence to a "criminal illegal alien", after an undocumented Indian-origin truck driver, Jashanpreet Singh, caused a deadly eight-vehicle crash in Ontario, killing three people. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also highlighted what she called a "disturbing pattern" of commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) being issued to illegal immigrants in the United States.
"I can confirm that California gave this individual a licence, and it is something that the Department of Transportation has already looked into... He killed three people, and he first entered the United States in 2022 through the southern border, and he was released into our country by the previous administration," Leavitt said, addressing a press conference.
"So now ICE (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) has lodged a separate detainer for this individual, and these tragedies are following a disturbing pattern of these criminal illegal aliens being issued commercial vehicle licences. And so, yes, the Department of Transportation is absolutely cracking down on that,' she added.
