Extremely proud of our founder and President Liz Castillo and all the other amazing nominees. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a prestigious event and to have our work recognized.

Last night, our member Paul Woodfork was featured in a news story discussing the effects of the port strike on the trucking industry, particularly here in Houston. As the strike continues, the trucking community is feeling the repercussions, with significant concerns for both drivers and owner-operators. Many are left uncertain about their livelihood, as this disruption limits the movement of goods and could potentially lead to financial hardship. The port closures have a cascading effect on the supply chain, affecting not only the transportation of essential goods but also impacting industries across the board. For owner-operators—who are paid by the move—these shutdowns could be financially devastating. As advocates for the trucking community, we will continue to voice the concerns of our members and look for solutions to mitigate these impacts. Thank you Bryce Newberry for the opportunity to share insights from our trucking community. -Liz Castillo and Priscilla Picasso 📺 https://lnkd.in/gjenVfjb #truckingindustry #owneroperators #portstrike #supplychain #logistics #transportation #community #supplychaindisruption
