CTA in Action: Government Affairs Update
Thank you to all our members who attended the June Policy Committee Meetings. The Policy Committee meetings covered issues that are impacting the trucking industry and provided members an opportunity to provide input and direction.
In response to the recent California Supreme Court's decision in the Dynamex case, CTA's Executive Committee approved CTA to look into a litigation strategy that the Association could pursue. However, the strategy is contingent upon the Association having adequate funds to pursue litigation. As has worked in previous litigation efforts that the Association has been a named party to, contributions from CTA members and other trucking industry stakeholders has allowed us the ability to pursue litigation.

CTA Highlights
As some of you may have seen already, Reps. Rick Crawford (R-AR), Sanford Bishop (D-GA) and Bruce Westerman (R-AR) introduced the Honest Operators Undertake Road Safety Act (HOURS Act). This bipartisan legislation, would provide common sense hours-of-service relief and flexibility for professional truck drivers, while enhancing highway safety and supply chain efficiency.
