Straight Talk from Steve

CDL bill

Back in January I introduced a bill to help drivers obtain a commercial driver’s license (CDL).

That bill is LB 688. The bill has advanced out of the Transportation and Telecommunications Committee and is now on General File. So, today I would like to tell you why this bill is important and why I introduced it.

Obtaining a commercial driver’s license isn’t as easy at it use to be. 25 years ago, all that a person had to do to get a CDL was to pay a visit to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), pass a few tests, and pay a fee.
