Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that the federal government will yank tens of millions of dollars from New York state if they do not “come into compliance” with rules pertaining to the granting of commercial driver’s licenses.

Duffy indicated that the state has 30 days to get in line.

“Fifty-three percent of New York’s non-domiciled CDLs were issued unlawfully or illegally,” he said during a press conference on Friday.

“We’re holding New York accountable for issuing non-domicile commercial driver’s licenses to truckers illegally. FULL STOP. We’re giving New York 30 days to comply or we’ll withhold $73 MILLION! The safety of the American people comes first,” he asserted in a post on X.
