Jimmy Mac wades into the swamps of Washington DC with OOIDA’s governmental team to make sense of the ongoing events in the nation’s capitol. It’s the information inside the bills, the players that help shape them, and what the listener can do to make themselves part of the process.
Join Jimmy Mac for the latest from Washington Trucking Week with Collin Long, Director of Government Affairs at the Owner Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA). They discuss FMCSA’s recent crackdown on non-compliant training schools, the 30-day compliance window, and the potential impact on professionalism and safety in the trucking industry. Collin also shares insight into US DOT actions affecting Minnesota’s non-domiciled CDL program and how these moves could shape the industry’s future. Stay informed on key regulatory changes and what drivers need to know.
