Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change federal law so that a commercial driver's license (CDL) can be held only by U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, or people authorized by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to work in jobs that include driving a commercial motor vehicle. States could issue CDLs only to people who meet this requirement. States would also have to send the U.S. Secretary of Transportation a report within 180 days of enactment, and by December 31 each year after that, describing how they enforce English-language proficiency rules for commercial drivers.
