Introduced·10/17/25

Secure Commercial Driver Licensing Act of 2025 mandates English-only testing for commercial driver's licenses and requires a prior driver's license.

The Secure Commercial Driver Licensing Act of 2025 requires all tests for commercial driver's licenses to be conducted in English, including entry-level training, knowledge tests, and third-party provider tests. It also mandates that individuals must hold a driver's license for at least one year before obtaining a commercial driver's license, with an exemption for those already holding a CDL. The Secretary of Transportation can revoke a state's authority to issue non-domiciled commercial licenses if they do not comply with federal standards.
