It’s Washington Trucking Week on Road Gang Radio with host Jimmy Mac, bringing you the latest updates straight from Capitol Hill.

This week, Collin Long, Director of Government Affairs at the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA), joins the show to break down two major developments from Washington that every trucker needs to know about:

The confirmation of Derek Barrs as the new FMCSA Administrator, and what his leadership could mean for independent drivers and small carriers.

The introduction of Electronic Logging Device (ELD) certification at the U.S. Department of Transportation, and how it could impact compliance, enforcement, and the trucking community at large.

Collin offers OOIDA’s take on these changes, what to expect next from regulators, and how drivers can make their voices heard in the ongoing push for fair and practical federal oversight.

If you care about the future of trucking policy, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
