State and Federal Lobbyist since 1973. 21 years lobbying with the trucking industry. Since 2004, working with my friend of 42 years, the Hon. Kent Hance.
We love to see the outpouring of gratitude for truckers during the COVID-19 pandemic, but it is our hope that the kindness continues when life goes back to normal. Dave Carter, a former trucker & veteran, has the same idea: https://t.co/73Ci2zDh8B. #ThankATrucker
Maybe it is because their constituents were lied to and intimidated by TCR. Maybe it is because like most Texans their constituents believe in private property rights. Or maybe it is just Legislators know that—if it is ever built ( which is doubtful), taxpayers will get the bill.
TCR just laid off a bunch of employees. TCR should lay off their management and lobbyists. They are a company who have dealt in lies and intimidation. They lack the very Texas values that make our state great. The FRA should deny and deny.
I am praying for the President like never before to begin responding aggressively and openly to the Coronavirus. Mr. Trump’s haphazard approach has been strategically inept and misleading. More of the same will lead to the deaths of Americans.
He must start leading.
We need meaningful tort reforms to combat bold/frivolous lawsuit abuse in the trucking industry. End abusive practices/tactics driving insurance rates up. 30% increase in 2019 alone! All things come via truck - we ALL pay the freight...no such thing as “free shipping.”#txlege
