Congressional Republicans are trying to further codify English language proficiency requirements in the trucking industry. However, the requirement was often unenforced until the Trump administration’s push for English proficiency enforcement earlier this year. A number of regulations have been proposed by Republican lawmakers since then in order to enhance English enforcement further. At least four lawmakers have proposed bills that would impose additional English proficiency requirements for commercial vehicle operators this year. Only about 3% of Congressional bills are passed, meaning these codified English requirements are unlikely to reach the president’s desk.
