    Why did they wait until the last minute to protest this? after it was already signed into law.
    Like others said it will accomplish nothing, besides all their arguments are invalid. KR went into discussing this on his show for last couple weeks and he is absolutely right

    Invalid? Wow. The amount of bootlickers here is downright staggering! I can't answer for the protest delay but I can only assume it was because they were waiting to see what Trump and/or OOIDA was going to do since there were court cases pending.

    Turns out the Black and Blue Facebook site is not being used because it's been compromised by the oppososers.
    But here is something I know CA ports are closed and the CA rallies and TX and Miami plus DC rallies are going strong. Local DC news was told not to cover it by the ATA. The meetings start today. One gathering in DC did not happen yesterday because area had closed before they arrived so they did alternate route with DC police help mind you.
    The count is well over 500 truckers now just in DC not including all the Other states. So you naysayers are wrong something is happening in a big way and meetings are going on. This is no minor event.

    My truck will stay shut down until the end of this protest. Thank God for the truckers that could make it to Washington DC and all over the country we need to unite against this stupid electronic log that will destroy the industry.
