The debate over non-domiciled CDLs has become one of the most heated and misunderstood conversations in trucking. Court filings, enforcement changes, and political rhetoric dominate the headlines — but rarely do we hear from the drivers whose lives are directly affected.

In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Jorge Rivera Lujan, an owner-operator with more than a decade in trucking who is currently involved in active litigation related to non-domiciled CDL enforcement.
Because the case is ongoing, this conversation does not analyze legal strategy or argue outcomes. Instead, it focuses on the human impact — how enforcement changes affect work, family, safety perceptions, and community — and addresses common myths surrounding non-domiciled CDL drivers.

This episode is about listening, understanding, and separating fact from assumption in one of trucking’s most emotionally charged issues.
