Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution designates the week of September 13 through September 19, 2026, as "National Truck Driver Appreciation Week" to honor the contributions of America's approximately 3.6 million professional truck drivers. The resolution acknowledges that truck drivers are essential to the nation's economy, transporting roughly 70 percent of all freight moved in the United States and driving over 330 billion miles annually to deliver goods to communities across the country, including remote areas unreachable by other transportation. The measure recognizes the sacrifices truck drivers make, including time away from family, while working in difficult conditions and dangerous weather, and notes their role in disaster relief and public safety efforts. There is no funding or implementation timeline involved, as this is a symbolic resolution expressing congressional support for recognizing and appreciating truck drivers' work. The resolution marks the 38th annual observance of this appreciation week.
