WASHINGTON — A committee in the House of Representatives easily approved a bill meant to facilitate commercial drivers’ access to security credentials.
The bipartisan Transportation Security Screening Modernization Act, introduced by Rep. Garret Graves (R-La.), seeks to standardize the security application process for the trucking workforce. Its approval in the Homeland Security Committee on Sept. 25 advanced it to the House floor. A vote in the chamber has yet to be scheduled.
