Truck drivers are the backbone of America bringing you the product, food, packages and everything else you have delivered. Through holidays and bad weather they continuously toil to deliver the goods you need. This week is Truck Driver appreciation week and we wanted to take this moment to thank all the drivers out there who work so hard without any expectation of thanks. Check out below all the reasons that you should take a moment this week and thank a truck driver today.

WHY THANK A TRUCKER

Without a truck driver...we couldn’t shampoo our hair or clean our bodies in the shower.
Without a truck driver...we couldn’t have our breakfast bacon, oatmeal, fruit or morning cup of coffee.

Twenty years ago, on September 11, 2001, our nation...and the world...was changed. In an instant. From the unspeakable horror to the extraordinary heroism of that day, nothing would ever be the same. Nearly 3,000 innocent people were lost that day and more over the coming months and years in the fight that followed.

We take this time to remember all those who were lost. From the people who were going about their everyday lives, to the police, fire fighters and first responders that ran towards the smoke, fire and horror to the passengers who said “NO” and fought to save the lives of strangers they would never know.

We also remember the families of those who were lost, hoping that on this day they know peace and comfort.

Always honor, never forget.

As we move towards the last few months of the year, the supply chain issues that drivers, businesses, and customers have had to deal with all year don’t look to be going away anytime soon. But is help on the way? On August 27, the White House and U.S. Department of Transportation appointed John Porcari to the newly formed Supply Chain Disruptions Task Force. Porcari will serve as Port Envoy in his new role. Formed in June 2021, the task force was created to provide a federal response to ongoing supply challenges due to recent events such as the pandemic, rising shipping costs, driver shortage, and the economic recovery. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, FMCSA Deputy Administrator Meera Joshi, and Labor Secretary Marty Walsh met with representatives of the trucking industry to discuss driver retention and supply chain issues. Porcari will work with Buttigieg, Department of Transportation officials, and the National Economic Council to address congestion at our ports, backlogs, delivery delays, and product shortages. The new envoy will have to get started quickly as the 2021 Holiday season is approaching fast.
