Back to the bill

90th General Assembly · Iowa Funnel one-pager · Tuesday, November 10, 2026

SSB 1027: SSB 1027

Became SF 156 · Its progress continues under the new number.

What it does

176B requires the department of transportation (DOT) to adopt rules which allow exemptions from commercial driver’s license (CDL) requirements for suppliers of agricultural inputs or their employees while delivering such products to their customers, if allowed under federal law.49.176A(6). This bill strikes those provisions and instead requires the DOT to issue a restricted CDL to qualified persons who are employed in a designated farm-related service industry, as authorized under federal law.3(f).
