I’m proud to introduce this bill with Congressman Shreve to close the gaps in our reporting systems and identify illegal aliens who hold CDLs so law enforcement can get these dangerous drivers off our roads.
Introduce and support legislation that requires federal and state reporting on non-domiciled CDL holders, uses immigration verification to confirm lawful presence, and helps remove unlawful drivers from American roads.
Occurrences
Evidence
Action: "Mr. Taylor (for himself and Mr. Shreve) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure." Sponsors: David J. Taylor (OH), Jefferson Shreve (IN). Full title: "To direct the Administrator of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to establish and maintain a database for commercial driver’s license data, and for other purposes."
The office said Taylor and Jefferson Shreve "today introduced H.R. 8640, the Non-Domiciled CDL Reporting Act," to "identify illegal aliens who hold Commercial Drivers' Licenses, facilitate their removal from American roads, and keep American families safe." The release says the bill would provide a report on non-domiciled CDL holders flagged using the SAVE system and their issuing states.
Assessments
Taylor fulfilled the campaign promise in the relevant federal office context by introducing and supporting H.R. 8640, the Non-Domiciled CDL Reporting Act, during the same term. The bill matches the promised elements: federal reporting on non-domiciled CDL holders, SAVE-based immigration/lawful-presence verification, identification of issuing states, and a stated purpose of removing unlawful CDL drivers from American roads. Because the promise was framed as introducing and supporting legislation, not securing enactment, introduction and sponsorship are sufficient for delivery.
