The Dalilah Law
This bill would restrict the issuance of commercial driver's licenses to only U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and holders of specific work visas. It requires states to verify the citizenship or visa status of current CDL holders within 180 days of enactment and revoke licenses from those who do not meet these requirements. States that fail to comply with these verification and revocation deadlines would face federal funding penalties. Additionally, the bill mandates that all CDL testing and licensing processes be conducted in English.
