Wyoming's HB 32 requires commercial motor vehicle drivers to demonstrate English language proficiency based on federal standards. It directly affects commercial drivers operating in Wyoming who cannot prove this skill, prohibiting them from driving until they meet the requirement. The bill imposes a $1,000 fine for first-time violations and additional penalties - including up to 90 days in jail - for repeated offenses while under the operating ban. Enforcement will be handled by highway patrol and local law enforcement officers. The law takes effect July 1, 2026.
