The year 2020 has been historic, unforgettable and jam-packed with news. Who better to help recap what’s happened and what it means for trucking going into 2021 than the leadership of OOIDA?

As part of the Wednesday, Dec. 30 episode of “Live From Exit 24”, members of OOIDA’s leadership and government affairs teams will join Mike Matousek, OOIDA’s manager of government affairs, and host of the show.
