H.R.7793

The Dalilah Law

Introduced·3/4/26

The Dalilah Law prohibits commercial driver's licenses for non-citizens unless they hold certain work visas.

The Dalilah Law amends federal transportation law to prohibit the issuance of commercial driver's licenses to individuals who are not citizens or lawful permanent residents of the United States, or holders of specific work visas. The law also mandates that states recertify existing license holders to ensure compliance with these criteria. States that fail to complete these recertifications or issue licenses to ineligible individuals will face the withholding of federal funding. The law applies to all commercial driver's licenses and related authorizations, including non-domiciled licenses.
