Governor Greg Abbott and many Republicans argue that cancelling the commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) held by many immigrant truck drivers in Texas is necessary to make our roads safer.

Critics, including state Representative Ramn Romero Jr., D-District 90, say it means Texans will be paying more for their goods.

"It's not just the truck. It's the 20-plus thousand dollars a year that you're paying in insurance. And now, if you owned a trucking company that hired several of these drivers, now those trucks are sitting still. If they're not moving, they're not moving goods. If they're not moving goods, they're not moving our economy. This is going to have a huge impact on our economy," Romero Jr. said on Inside Texas Politics.
