CTA in Action: Government Affairs Update
On December 21, the FMCSA approved ATA’s petition that Federal Meal and Rest Break rules preempt California meal and rest break rules. The approval of the petition is a great victory for the industry that will help to increase uniform and consistent regulations. However, not everyone is happy with the FMCSA’s decision to approve the petition. On December 28, the Teamsters petitioned the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals to review and reverse FMCSA’s preemption of California meal and rest break requirements.
Happy New Year and thank you for being a member of CTA. We will continue to fight for this industry at the state capitol from a legislative standpoint, before regulatory agencies and bodies throughout California, and in the state and federal courts from a legal standpoint. Whenever and wherever those battles need to be fought to protect our great and essential industry, we will continue to do just that. While the landscape in 2019 will be more challenging than ever, trucking in California is up to that challenge – and opportunity. We look forward to seeing you in San Diego at CTA's 2019 Annual Membership Conference, January 23 - 27. Compliance and Regulatory News
