Did you know…
The Utah Trucking Association’s main function is to lobby for the trucking industry? And that the Executive Director, Rick Clasby, is a lobbyist looking out for the interests of the association members? That’s why the slogan is “Utah’s Voice in Trucking”.
The Utah Legislature began its 2017 session on Monday, January 23rd and goes for 45 business days (ends on March 9th). Rick has already spent many hours at the capitol this week to make sure your voice is heard.
Every Friday, starting today, we will send out the Utah Trucking Association 2017 Utah Legislative Bill Tracker (or 2017 Bill Tracker for short). This will include all of the bills that impact the industry.
The tracker contains the gist of the each bill we’re tracking, but for a more in-depth view, you can click on the bill’s number to link directly to the Utah Legislative website and get all of the information available. We will update the tracker each week with the association’s insights and implications for the industry.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out – that’s exactly why the association exists.
