For Immediate Release<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Truckers will hold Administration and Congress to their pledge to reduce regulations<\/h3>\n

The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, the nation\u2019s only organization representing professional and small-business truckers, launched an energetic campaign today at MATS to encourage its members to push back against excessive trucking regulations.<\/p>\n

The \u201cKnock Out Bad Regs\u201d effort will give OOIDA members the tools to hold the Administration and Congress to their pledge to reduce regulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are concerned that the promise to reduce regulations will instead turn into an effort by policy makers in Washington D.C. to add even more burdensome regulations,\u201d said Todd Spencer, executive vice president. \u201cCongress should be working to eliminate costly regulations like ELD’s and speed limiters rather than adding even more rules and red tape.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKnock Out Bad Regs\u201d will help educate and encourage members on what they need to do in identifying their lawmakers in Washington D.C. and reaching out to them effectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur members have always been highly engaged in the process,\u201d said Todd Spencer. \u201cBut there is an urgent need to increase the volume going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
