According to DeFazio, US taxpayers will be footing the bill to pay for Mexico's trucking companies to bypass American safety standards and theses Mexican trucking companies will be granted PERMANANT authority to operate in the US that cannot be rescinded should the program be terminated.
The pilot allows Mexican trucks to operate on U.S.highways beyond the current border commercial zone and it allows Mexican carriers to obtain permanent operating authority from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) after 18 months in the pilot program. That permanent authority could not be rescinded were Congress or the Administration to terminate the Mexican truck pilot program.
