President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday mandating that commercial truck drivers demonstrate English proficiency, building on his earlier move to designate English as the official language of the United States.
On X, formerly Twitter, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt re-posted Breitbart News' initial reporting on the order.
The order directs the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) to strengthen inspection procedures for verifying drivers' English skills and to review commercial driver's license (CDL) authentication, according to excerpts obtained by Breitbart.
