Thank you to our our veterans
On this Veterans Day, as we celebrate those who served our country, those who served are getting into trucking with Freedom Haulers
✅ 12 trucking companies now pledging to to hire more than 13,000 vets
✅Nearly 400 Veterans have already used their GI bill to obtain benefits
✅ $3.5 million invested in 21 states to expand training programs for veterans
Veterans have grit, perseverance and patriotism. Freedom Haulers makes it easier for them to transition into a profession where they make great money, have flexibility, and serve this country on our roads 🇺🇸
There's still time to make a difference! 🇺🇸
Truckers for Troops wraps up this Sunday night, so don't miss your chance to get involved and support the men and women who serve our country.
Whether you sign up, renew, or make a donation, every bit of support helps us give back to those who serve.

🚚 40% of #OOIDA’s members are veterans. Programs like Freedom Haulers tap directly into that proven, professional talent to keep our highways safe and freight moving.
🇺🇸 Honored to join @SecDuffy and @BarrsDerek on the National Mall to support this initiative! #VeteransDay2026

Honoring Those Who Served. Celebrating New Opportunities.
This Veterans Day, FMCSA Administrator Derek D. Barrs shares a message recognizing the men and women who have served our nation.
FMCSA is proud to support America's veterans as they explore new opportunities to continue serving their communities through careers in the trucking industry.
To all who have served, thank you for your service and sacrifice. 🇺🇸

Veterans are what makes America great 🇺🇸
Their patriotism and dedication is why USDOT wants them to be a part of one of our nation’s most important industries: TRUCKING 🚛
Deputy Secretary @sgbradbury: “Veteran truck drivers are much safer… and actually much more productive. The more productive a truck driver is, the more he’s going to earn.”

Veterans Day is tomorrow. 🎖️
Free meals, bottomless sides, even a car wash. And OOIDA’s Truckers For Troops campaign is still rolling, with a way to save and give back. Here’s how to get in on both. 👇

For plenty of truckers, serving the country started long before they climbed into the cab.
This Veterans Day week, we’re looking at deals for those who served and how Truckers for Troops turns a membership discount into support.

FMCSA’s old complaint database got a makeover. 🛠️
@OOIDA once said that’s where truckers’ complaints “go to die.”
So what’s actually different this time?

#OOIDA’s @Lewie_Pugh joined @OfficialRFDTV this morning to discuss why increasing insurance costs could drive experienced truckers out of business and make our roadways LESS safe.

🚚 We encourage truckers to utilize the new system. We also encourage FMCSA to continue listening to truckers by addressing their feedback!
