Congressman salutes truckers on House floor
U.S. Rep. Frank LoBiondo, R-NJ, recognized the hard work of America’s truckers during an address to the U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday, Sept. 23. Monday, September 27, 2010 U.S. Rep. Frank LoBiondo, R-NJ, recognized the hard work of America’s truckers during an address to the U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday, Sept. 23. “Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize America’s professional truck drivers who serve our nation by delivering the clothes we wear, the food we eat, and the medicine we rely on,” LoBiondo stated into the record. The congressman has good reason to speak highly of truckers. He said that prior to getting into politics he worked for his family’s trucking business for 26 years. “Trucking is an industry that I am personally quite familiar with,” he said. “… Early on, I acquired a commercial driver’s license, which I still carry.” LoBiondo presented some statistics about trucking and discussed the amount of training and regulations that go along with driving. He commended truckers for their sacrifices and for their roles and responsibility in keeping the highways safe. “I salute these fine professionals and their families for the dedication they have to America and for delivering life’s essentials safely and securely,” he said. |
Message from the President- February 2011 I recently had the privilege of representing the NJMTA at a reception held at the Governor's residence Drumthwacket. We were invited due to the generosity of two of our members, Lacey's Express, Inc. and National Retail Systems, Inc. who responded to a request for tractor donations Message From President - January 2011 As I prepared to write my first article for the NJMTA membership as the acting President, my thoughts are focused on the recent tragedy that occurred in Arizona where a Congressman was seriously wounded and 6 others murdered at a political rally. I find myself asking just what is happening to our country.
