The Wall that Heals, the mobile replica of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, is on the move to Brookings, SD from Reynolds IN. And Marty Ellis from @OOIDA is driving that route. Here's a shot of him, the Spirit Tour truck and the memorial. #trucking

Access to a restroom shouldn't be a luxury. The new Highway Bill takes steps to improve bathroom access for truck drivers, addressing a basic need that impacts dignity, safety, and quality of life on the road. Another important victory for America's truckers. 🚛🇺🇸

Truck parking has been a crisis for far too long. The new Highway Bill includes $750 million dedicated to expanding truck parking nationwide, a major win for the men and women who keep America moving. This is the kind of investment truckers have been fighting for. 🚛🇺🇸

This just in! There’s more money for truck parking in the 2027 DOT budget. 🅿️🚛 This is NEW funding, on top of $750M in the highway bill and $200M from 2026 spending. Thank YOU @rep_stevewomack and @SecDuffy. OOIDA fought for this, and we hope to see it become law. 💪

A huge victory for our professional truckers 🇺🇸 The BUILD America 250 Act is moving forward, and many of the priorities OOIDA fought for are included in this historic highway bill. This is what strong advocacy and truckers standing together can accomplish. 💪🚛

As a teenager, Derek Barrs took a 911 call he could never forget — a log truck crash, a young woman, a fire. Years later, that moment became the reason he runs the FMCSA. "That is my why." FMCSA Administrator Derek Barrs shares the story behind his mission on Freight Expectations with Craig Fuller and Matt Leffler. 🎥 Full episode: vist.ly/558a6

Thank you @RepDaveTaylor for advancing the SAFE Act in this year’s surface transportation reauthorization package. American truckers and families everywhere will be safer when chameleon carriers are shut down across the board. 🛑

As we head into Memorial Day weekend, OOIDA honors and remembers the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸 While many gather with family and friends this weekend, we encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices that made our freedoms possible. From America’s highways to hometowns across the country, we remember and we are grateful.🚛

Today was a great first step in the fight to get the most pro-trucker highway bill in recent history across the finish line. 🏁 We are so grateful for every member who called their lawmakers and helped make our voices heard! We have a long road ahead of us but with this first step we are on our way! 🚛🇺🇸

Truckers should never have to ‘hold it’ because they aren’t allowed to use the restroom. It’s a matter of basic dignity. 🚛🚻 For months, OOIDA worked with @RepHoulahan and @RepTroyNehls to get restroom access into the new highway bill. THANK YOU for listening to our members! 👏🙌

🚛❌ Secretary Duffy on getting ILLEGAL TRUCKERS OFF AMERICA’S ROADWAYS: “The issues we’ve had with commercial driver’s licenses is a nationwide problem… there’s not a difference between a Democrat state and a Republican state… they were giving CDLs to people who were illegal... we’ve now modified the rules… these should be the best drivers on the road.”

Fraud is running rampant in our industry and must be met with the full force of the law. ⚖️ OOIDA fought for tools in the highway bill to crack down on criminals who pose a risk to highway safety. Thank you @EleanorNorton and @RepEzell for getting these provisions included! 👏

🚛 As @60Minutes shared, drivers are getting kicked to the curb by lease to own schemes that promise ownership and deliver nothing. Alongside @RepBrownley, OOIDA fought to end these predatory scams in the highway bill! 👏📜
