Bill > S2858

This bill directs the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to establish a Women of Trucking Advisory Board to promote organizations and programs that provide education, training, mentorship, or outreach to women in the trucking industry and recruit women into the trucking industry. The board will be composed of representatives from large, mid-sized, and small trucking companies, nonprofit organizations, trucking business associations, independent owner-operators, and a woman who is a professional truck driver. The board will identify industry trends that discourage women from pursuing careers in trucking, recommend strategies to address those trends and create more opportunities for women in the industry, and submit a report to the FMCSA Administrator. The Administrator will then report to Congress on the board's recommendations and actions taken to adopt them.
