Sens. Moran, Ernst Introduce Bill to Increase Access to Commercial Driver’s Licenses During Harvest

U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) – a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee and the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee – and U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) – a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee – introduced the Seasonal Agriculture CDL Modernization Act to help reduce burdensome regulations for seasonal agricultural drivers by allowing drivers to renew commercial driver’s licenses (CDL) online and updating classifications for farm equipment.

“Kansas farmers, ranchers and agricultural producers depend on reliable, efficient transportation to move harvested crops from the fields to grain elevators and markets,” said Sen. Moran. “Our legislation would modernize the requirements for seasonal agricultural commercial driver’s licenses, making it easier for producers to renew their CDL and safely transport farm equipment and machinery during harvest.”

“When harvest season comes around, our farmers have enough on their plates – they shouldn’t have to spend valuable time navigating bureaucratic red tape that hinders their work in the field and on the roads,” said Sen. Ernst.
