Truckers move more than 70 percent of the nation\u2019s freight and remain essential to keeping goods moving across rural and urban communities alike.\n\n\u201cTruckers are the backbone of our economy, but Washington keeps making their jobs harder,\u201d said Congressman Harrigan. \u201cThey\u2019re dealing with unsafe infrastructure, a shrinking workforce, and regulations written by people who have never been behind the wheel. This caucus gives truckers a voice in Congress and focuses on real solutions that improve safety and keep supply chains moving.\u201d\n\nCongressman Harrigan will serve as a Co-Chair of the caucus alongside Representatives Dave Taylor (OH-02), Shomari Figures (AL-02), Harriet Hageman (WY-AL), Doug LaMalfa (CA-01), and Mary Miller (IL-15).", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:09:11Z"]], "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://harrigan.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-pat-harrigan-helps-launch-first-ever-congressional-trucking-caucus"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8550321217626333, "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"}
