Summary

The Senate Joint Resolution asks the U.S. Congress and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to examine current federal CDL disqualification policies and consider changes that give states more flexibility and help drivers who have lost their licenses. It targets the roughly 17,000 California commercial drivers whose licenses were suspended or revoked under recent rules, even when unsafe driving was not involved. The measure highlights the importance of drivers to California’s economy and supply chains.
