SAN DIEGO (Border Report) — Forty Mexican truckers have lost privileges to drive on U.S. highways due to their lack of English skills, industry officials say.

Back in April, President Trump issued an executive order enforcing an existing law that mandates all truck drivers know enough English to read road signs and interact with law enforcement north of the border.

The order officially went into effect June 26.

Israel Delgado Vallejo, vice president of the Northwest Chapter of the Chamber of Freight Transportation, said the drivers taken out of service were driving through Texas, Mississippi or Arkansas.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
