California has announced plans to delay the revocation of 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses until March, giving more time for truckers and bus drivers who legally qualify for the licenses to keep them. The move on Tuesday came a week after immigrant groups filed a lawsuit over the issue. California had decided to revoke the licenses after Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy pressured the state to make sure immigrants who are in the country illegally aren’t granted them. The Transportation Department has been prioritizing this issue ever since a truck driver who wasn't authorized to be in the U.S. caused a crash in Florida that killed three people in August.
