Trump Proposes 'Dalilah Law' to Bar Illegal Immigrants from Commercial Driver Licenses

During his 2026 State of the Union address, US President Donald Trump proposed the 'Dalilah Law' to bar illegal immigrants from obtaining commercial driver's licenses. The law is named after Dalilah Coleman, a young girl severely injured in a 2024 multi-vehicle crash caused by Partap Singh, an undocumented Indian immigrant with a commercial license issued in California. Trump cited language barriers and safety concerns, urging Congress to pass the law to enhance road safety and restrict licenses to legal residents only.
