Gov. Maura Healey is pushing for legislation to prevent many Massachusetts bus and truck drivers from losing their commercial driving eligibility based on offenses 19 or more years oldTop Democrats suggested they're open to Gov. Maura Healey's legislative push to minimize upheaval for hundreds of commercial drivers, in the process lamenting a"bipartisan failure" that contributed to the need for action so late in the lawmaking term.
Bishop and his wife, Leanne, said one of their employees has been so disrupted by the suspension notice based on driving offenses from more than 30 years ago that he was hospitalized due to stress. The move prompted public outcry, and the RMV gave CDL holders facing disqualification several months to request a hearing.
Healey took action on two parallel tracks last week: she instructed the RMV to create a reinstatement program that complies with federal law, and she filed a bill that would prevent offenses that occurred before Sept. 30, 2005 from counting against commercial eligibility, mirroring the federal timeline.A Department of Transportation official previously estimated the legislative change would help about two-thirds of the drivers who received letters over the summer.
