Regulatory tracking
Rulemakings, comment deadlines and effective dates, written for the person who has to operate under them rather than for a law review.

Federal and state rules reshape how carriers operate every year. We track what changes, explain what it means for a fleet, and represent members where those decisions are made.
Each area below is maintained with a source, a reviewer and a review date. Regulatory guidance without provenance does not get published here.

Current issuesPractical material on inspections, hours of service, and driver qualification — including English-language preparation resources for member companies to use with their own drivers.
Compliance resourcesNegotiated programs with vendors. Where the association is paid by a vendor, the page says so, in plain terms, next to the offer.
How membership worksBrokers, shippers and insurers can confirm whether a company is a member in good standing. The check returns current status — not a cached badge a lapsed member could keep displaying.
On issues that divide the membership, the association takes a position only when the board adopts one by resolution. Until then, our published material explains the rule and its operational consequences without advocating an outcome.
This is deliberate. Members compete with one another, and an association that manufactures consensus on a question where its members' interests genuinely diverge is not representing them.
