All Commercial Driver's that buy fuel are affected

[OTRPU]

The Big boys are wanting to keep it for themselves. The plain fact is the person that pays for the fuel should get any fuel surcharge that the customer is being charged. If you don't agree, offer a good reason why the company or broker should be entitled to any of the fuel surcharge. The vast majority of all of anyting being delivered is delivered by small business independant truckers with the owner paying for expenses. We need everybodies help with this, big business has more money, we have more votes if everybody will vote. You will make the difference. This bill also has clauses that allow new tolls on old roads, this will affect everybody that drives anything. The Denver/Boulder turnpike toll was finally taken off. . .well after it should have been removed. . .when the citizens joined together and demanded it. In case you don't know it, larger truck companies negotiate fuel costs years in advance. Some are paying $1.20 for diesel today. The majority, the small contractor is paying retail less taxes at the pump and the taxes through IFTA. The worst thing that has happened to this country is Deregulation of the trucking industry, deregulated everything but driver's. The second worst thing to happen was NAFTA & GATT. Now they want to pass CAFTA. It won't help Americans, only Big business. Nearly everything is being made overseas, to help Americans they should tax it when it comes in, then you wouldn't be paying the tax you do. Better than half this eligible population has never voted, they don't think it will make any difference. It's the only thing that can make any difference. Please get involved and make a difference. It won't cost the government a dime, it will only take a few minutes of your time. You're already paying the surcharge, just the wrong person is keeping it.

Here's an easy way, pass this on to everybody you know and all family eligible to vote. If they hear it enough from their constituants they will do the right thing, like their job depends on it.
