Alabama Trucking Association

The Alabama Trucking Association, through its political action committee, TRUK PAC, has announced its endorsements of candidates who face opposition in the upcoming June 5 primaries.

“It’s important that state policymakers understand trucking’s importance and impact to Alabama’s economy,” said ATA President Frank Filgo. “Trucking moves 80 percent of manufactured goods here and provides one out of every 14 Alabama jobs. Our Association believes these candidates, if elected, provide the best opportunity to move this state forward.”

According to Filgo, ATA’s 2018 endorsements include 56 primary candidates — almost half of these contenders are running either in opposition to the incumbent or for an open seat.  “A high turnover percentage in the State Senate and the House of Representatives is a given,” he adds.
