Visa Freeze and ICE Crackdowns Affect Laredo Trucking Industry

Reported 14 days ago

Carriers in Laredo, Texas, are facing increased recruitment difficulties due to a pause on new work visas for foreign drivers and new English proficiency regulations. This situation is straining freight capacity, leading some companies to raise pay rates to attract qualified drivers while grappling with operational changes to meet compliance demands. The broader effects of current immigration enforcement are also disrupting domestic freight lanes, heightening fears among immigrant drivers and inflating freight rates due to supply shortages.
