The bill ("Trust in Reliable Understanding of Consumer Costs Act" or "TRUCC Act") requires freight agencies, carriers, brokers, in transportation to pay 100% of fuel surcharges collected from customers to truckers who must bear the cost of buying the diesel fuel.. On April 24th U.S. Senators Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) and Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) introduced this legislation.
Ask your Senators to commit their support for S. 2910 by signing on as cosponsors of the bill.
To contact your 2 Senators, call the U.S. Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121, provide the operator with your home zip code and they will connect you with the offices of your elected representatives.
Be brief, but let your Senator know how important this legislation is to you and others who work at ports and rail yards of America.
