A coalition of local officials from across the country are calling on Congress to oppose proposed legislation that will allow an increase in the length and weight of large trucks traveling on commercial highways.

“Longer and heavier trucks would cause significantly more damage to our transportation infrastructure, costing us billions of dollars that local government budgets simply cannot afford, compromising the very routes that American motorists use every day.”

    I guess the industry thinks it’s been long enough to try pushing for this again.

    Yeah, it’s really sad how people are paid everyday to think of ways to cut corners and lower standards so rich people can make more money.

    It never ends.
