Yeah it doesn't take a whole heap of money, nor time, to get a commercial truck-driving license. It's an option for people needing money NOW. It's a bit more of an investment to drive trailers and big rigs, But, still. you gotta start somewhere. I knew kids in College that did driving stints in the holidays.
Provided you keep your sanity, It's a decent earner. And a good money-stream can buy a whole lotta sanity.
Weeding the illegals out, in a fell swoop, will make this job an easy one, to apply for, in the short term.

I graduated 3 years ago with a Bachelor's in CS. I dreamed of working at a medium to large tech firm. Right after graduating, I started applying to position after position, only to get denied, or more frequently, ignored altogether. I didn't know why. I had a large stash of personal projects (embedded, web dev, Java stuff) that I was eager to share with interviewers as proof I could make the hardware do more work with less resources. After much searching, I finally scored a job at a small business making mainly B2B products. Although it didn't pay the best (still more than enough to live on), it was better than nothing and I got to get my hands dirty on new processor architectures that I hadn't played with before.
Now it all makes sense. They didn't want a straight White man for the positions, and they had to decline enough USA applicants to be able to apply for H1B. I'm actually glad I didn't get hired, given how they've been pushing AI use quotas on people. I find it's a useful resource for code references (though not as good as 2015 Google). I even had an incident where it almost destroyed a prototype board with a timing-critical SMPS section by severely getting the frequency wrong. Fortunately, it also forgot to enable one of the outputs and saved my ass. I rewrote it manually.
I totally understand why Trump is targeting the transportation sector first. Crappy code wrote by incompetent programmers can't end lives, but incompetent drivers behind a 50 ton semi is a whole different story.
Thank you Secretary Rubio. This should have been done long ago.
Now place at least one ICE agent at every weigh station and we've got something. But kudos on moving so swiftly on this.
That's a good idea.
Trump has announced he intends to do this. We've already had 2 crashes from non-English speaking CDLs failing to read English traffic signs.

Now do it for IT.
You tellem Liddle Marco
This is awesome. Let's do engineers next.

It's all coming out now. It's a scam that has been going on a long time but we didn't know about it.
