The roads just got safer in Oklahoma.
On Monday, Republican Governor of Oklahoma Kevin Stitt announced 130 illegal immigrant truck divers were arrested in a state wide sting.
Stitt announced the Oklahoma Highway Patrol alongside ICE arrested the illegal commercial truck drivers on I-40 in Western Oklahoma.
The majority of the drivers were using licenses issued from Democrat states and stemmed from multiple countries such as India, China, Russia Turkey, and Ukraine.
Many of the CDLs given out from sanctuary states lacked basic information and Governor Stitt revealed one in particular had written “No Name Given” where the driver’s name was supposed to be.

If New York wants to hand out CDLs to illegal immigrants with “No Name Given,” that’s on them. The moment they cross into Oklahoma, they answer to our laws.
OHP performed an enforcement action along I-40 and apprehended 125 illegal immigrants.
On Monday, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt announced authorities apprehended 130 alleged “illegal” immigrants from multiple countries under “Operation Guardian” sweep along Interstate 40.
According to the Governor Stitt’s announcement, the operation handled by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) targeted enforcement along I-40 in western Oklahoma with numerous commercial truck drivers utilizing licensures issued by sanctuary states from multiple countries, including India, Uzbekistan, China, Russia, Georgia, Turkey, Tajikistan, Ukraine, and Mauritania.
“If New York wants to hand out CDLs to illegal immigrants with ‘No Name Given,’ that’s on them. The moment they cross into Oklahoma, they answer to our laws,” said Governor Stitt. “I want to thank our troopers and ICE officials for their hard work. This is about keeping Oklahomans safe.”
The Oklahoma Corporation Commission Brian Bingman stated the crackdown was due to “legitimate concerns with illegal immigrants obtaining CDLs in other jurisdictions. The inability to read road signs written in English will lead to accidents. This negligence creates risk for Oklahoma’s drivers.”
The move by Oklahoma authorities and ICE comes as the Trump administration is aiming to crack down on illegal immigrants obtaining their CDLs.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a freeze on all employment of commercial trucker drivers.
Rubio’s decision to freeze worker visas for truck drivers came after a 28-year-old Indian national who allegedly entered the U.S. illegally, caused a fatal collision after making an illegal U-turn.
