Truckers moving goods from ports within a state would follow state, not federal, license rules.
This bill would change how certain truck routes are classified for commercial driver's licenses.

This bill would reclassify these specific routes as 'intrastate,' meaning state-level license rules would apply instead.
Today, moving goods by truck from a port to another place in the same state is often considered 'interstate transportation' if the goods came from outside the state or country, meaning federal commercial driver's license rules apply. This bill would change that, making these specific routes 'intrastate transportation' for CDL purposes, so state-level license rules would apply instead.
