UBER Act

This bill would bar federal executive agencies from awarding contracts to ride share and other shared transportation companies for services in the United States unless every driver working under the contract meets certain requirements. Drivers would need to be at least 21, read and speak English well enough to talk with the public and officials and understand traffic signs, be able to safely operate their vehicle, hold a valid license from only one state, and have passed a road test. The English requirement would not apply to deaf or hearing-impaired drivers who use American Sign Language. Companies would have to certify that their drivers meet these rules, and a company found out of compliance would be barred from federal contracts for 5 years.
