U.S. Border Patrol agents in the Yuma Sector have arrested 52 undocumented individuals in a recent crackdown dubbed “Operation Checkmate.” ๐๐
The operation targeted unqualified commercial drivers, prompting a strong response from the Arizona Trucking Association:
“The safety of Arizona’s highways depends on every commercial driver being fully qualified, properly licensed, and able to communicate in English with law enforcement and the traveling public.”
They emphasized that closing loopholes in CDL oversight is essential to keep bad actors and unqualified drivers off the road.
What are your thoughts on this recent enforcement?
