Today the Senate Commerce, Science & Transportation Committee is reviewing OSRA22. One example of why reform is needed: this trucker was threatened with shutout by Evergreen--an SSL that posted $9.5 BILLION in profits in 2021--over a $40 bill. @FMC_gov@POTUS@SecretaryPete
Fielding calls from multiple members regarding ongoing lack of empty returns & ZERO chassis availability. One member just said his fleet “is at a standstill” & SSLs refuse to extend free time. The #supplychaincrisis must be addressed @potus@SecretaryPete@FMC_gov@PANYNJ !
When asked about the Pros of using PortPro's drayage software, this was the response from one of our customers (Nathan @ Bound Logistics). We are thrilled to be able to provide this efficiency and visibility for Nathan, his team and his customers!

For the third day in a row, HMM will have no Empty Return Locations for 40'HC tomorrow. @FMC_gov@PANYNJ we must put a stop to these practices that hinder our ability to efficiently move cargo at @PortNYNJ#transportation#emptyreturns#freight
No Empty Return location today for H-L 20’, 40’ HC & 45’ General. 40’ General containers must go back to GCT, which requires appointments & is showing limited availability for empty returns until Noon. @FMC_gov@PANYNJ@Intermodal@secretarypete These shutouts have to stop!
Something is gotta be done.
APM Terminals, to be so backed up?
There were drivers waiting for their freight for over 12 hours today!
