As one of the few former truckers in Congress, I am hopeful this resolution receives widespread support. Let\u2019s get these committed Americans the recognition they deserve.\u201d\n\n\u201cWhen every convenience and necessity is available on a store shelf or just a click away, it can be easy to overlook America\u2019s 3.5 million truck drivers who pull off this logistical feat day after day,\u201d said American Trucking Associations Senior VP of Legislative Affairs Henry Hanscom. \u201cOur reliance on truckers is absolute, and our appreciation for them should be as well. National Truck Driver Appreciation week celebrates these hardworking professionals whose dedication and sacrifice power our economy. We applaud Representatives Bost and Carbajal for leading this bipartisan effort to give truck drivers the recognition and gratitude they richly deserve.\u201d\n\nRead the full resolution here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T01:08:28Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://bost.house.gov/2025/6/bost-introduces-resolution-honoring-america-s-truck-drivers"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7676365785300732, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
