Trump executive order requires truck drivers to speak English
"President Trump signed an executive order Monday that requires commercial truck drivers in the United States to be proficient in English.
The text of the order acknowledges the essential role that truck drivers play in the U.S. economy and the livelihood of American people.
“Every day, truckers perform the demanding and dangerous work of transporting the Nation’s goods to businesses, customers, and communities safely, reliably, and efficiently,” the order said.
Trump designated English as the country’s official language in an executive order in March. In his order Monday, the president said proficiency in English should be nonnegotiable for professional drivers."
