Day 9: Our Bill

This week we were asked to write a bill that explains how we would like our action plan to play out. In this bill we included what we want done, and how we would like to do it. We put out the steps in which a BMV/DMV would have to follow to have a person obtaining a CDL license to correctly do. We thought that it would be a good idea for each trucker to have to watch a video about human trafficking, and then take a follow up test. The video would tell people how to see the crime happening, how to stop it, and how to report it. The would allow truckers to practice on these challenges. We believe that each person taking the test should obtain at least a 75% or better in order to get their license. In the bill we came up with some ideas of BMV’s that do not follow these rules. Some of the rules being the manager being suspended for a few days without pay, having to pay large fines, and if it continues enough the manager would have to leave for five years. If the problem is not fixed the branch will be closed. We hope that this bill can be effective enough to really help the victims of human trafficking.
