Proposed legislation would help address nation’s growing truck driver shortage.
The American Supply Association is part of a coalition of more than 100 entities showing strong support for the DRIVE-Safe Act (S.659, H.R. 1745) and urging its inclusion in forthcoming legislation.
As the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation and the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure begin their work on a major infrastructure legislative package and/or surface transportation authorization bill, ASA is a major proponent of this legislation, which garnered the support of more than one-third of the House and Senate in the 116th Congress, and will address the nation’s growing truck driver shortage by promoting opportunity and enhanced safety training for emerging members of the transportation workforce.
