Trump administration threatens to withhold $75M from Pennsylvania over immigrant truck drivers

AP News The Trump administration threatened Thursday to withhold nearly $75 million in funding if Pennsylvania does not immediately revoke what the administration claims are illegally issued commercial driver’s licenses to immigrants.
