2023 National Broker Reform Shutdown
<p>TNOOA has been calling for broker reform since March 6, 2023. Since then, they have made waves in Washington D.C., but not to the extent necessary to keep the supply chain alive in America. TNOOA has been stressing the importance of <a href="https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/section-371.3" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">49 CFR § 371.3</a> (records to be kept by brokers) during their time in Washington D.C., and last week, there was <strong><em>finally </em></strong>a meeting regarding the issue that seemed to be a light at the end of the tunnel.</p>
<p>While this was a very productive meeting, although it seems as though the FMCSA didn’t see it as such, as they have now pushed the ruling on broker transparency even further to October 31, 2024. This was supposed to be a meeting to make a final ruling on broker transparency. There are other organizations that have been fighting for this since 2020, including OOIDA and the SBTC. This is a long-standing issue that needs to be addressed as soon as possible. We cannot wait another year, we are being bled dry.</p>
