A bill for an act relating to human trafficking prevention training for persons applying for certain commercial driver’s licenses.

This bill requires applicants for Class A, B, or C commercial driver’s licenses in Iowa to certify they completed approved human trafficking prevention training as part of their driver’s education course. The training must be at least 30 minutes long, delivered in English, and cover recognizing, preventing, and reporting human trafficking. The Iowa Department of Transportation, working with education departments, must approve and publicly share these materials, reviewing them every three years to reflect current trafficking trends. It directly affects commercial driver’s license applicants and the entities providing their training courses.
