President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday requiring commercial truck drivers to demonstrate English language proficiency, a move that could significantly impact the logistics and transportation sectors.
What Happened: The order, announced by The White House&#8217;s official Rapid Response account, directs the Department of Transportation to enforce existing regulations under 49 C.F.R. 391.11(b)(2) that mandate drivers must &#8220;read and speak the English language sufficiently&#8221; to operate commercial vehicles safely.
&#8220;Drivers need to provide feedback to their employers and customers and receive related directions in English. This is common sense,&#8221; The White House said. 
&#8220;Within 60 days, the Secretary of Transportation shall rescind the 2016 guidance document on English language proficiency and issue new enforcement procedures,&#8221; the executive order states. The order also requires that violations result in drivers being placed &#8220;out-of-service,&#8221; effectively grounding them until compliance is achieved.
This directive follows Trump&#8217;s March 1 executive order designating English as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44066047/trump-to-declare-english-official-language-of-us-what-does-executive-mean?utm_source=chatgpt.com">official national language</a> of the United States, continuing his administration&#8217;s focus on language policy.
