What this bill does
H.R. 10237, the REVOKE Act, would amend federal transportation law (title 49, U.S. Code) to strengthen requirements around USDOT numbers, which are identification numbers used to register and track commercial motor carriers. The bill would require that any employer or person conducting operations subject to registration under the relevant sections have an "active" USDOT number, rather than simply possessing one. It directs the Secretary of Transportation to issue such numbers only after confirming an applicant meets all registration requirements, and requires the Secretary to immediately inactivate a USDOT number if the holder no longer has valid registration or fails to complete required periodic updates.
The bill primarily affects commercial motor carriers and other entities required to register with the U.S. Department of Transportation, as well as the Department itself, which would gain clearer authority and an explicit duty to deactivate numbers tied to lapsed registrations or missed filings. The practical effect would be to tighten oversight of who is authorized to operate under a valid registration, closing potential gaps where inactive or non-compliant entities could continue using an assigned number.
The bill was introduced in the House on September 2, 2026, by Rep. David Taylor with a cosponsor, and referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. As an introduced bill, it would need committee consideration, potential amendment, and votes in the House and Senate, followed by presidential signature, before becoming law.
