LMTA's Legislative Overview with Executive Director Renee Amar |

ADVOCACY
Members,
Starting next Tuesday, legislative committees at the State Capitol will begin hearing critical bills focused on lawsuit abuse and insurance reform--issues that directly impact your business, your premiums, and the future of trucking in our state. These reforms could bring real, long-overdue relief from excessive insurance costs and predatory legal practices--but they won't happen without the support of those most affected. That's why we're calling on truckers across Louisiana to show up, pack the hearing rooms, and testify. Mark Your Calendar -- We Need You There! Louisiana State Capitol, Baton Rouge
Lawmakers need to hear directly from the people who keep Louisiana moving. Your story matters. Your presence makes a difference. How to Attend a Committee Meeting If you've never attended a legislative committee meeting before, don't worry--we've got you covered. Here's what you need to know - these pages will help you understand where to go, how to sign in, and what to expect when testifying. We'll also be on-site to support you. If you have questions, want to prepare testimony, or need help coordinating your visit to the Capitol, please contact Executive Director Renee Amar at renee@lmta.la or (225) 287-0117. |

2025 Trucking Day at the Capitol
The Louisiana Loggers Association and Louisiana Motor Transport Association invite you to join us on April 28 for Trucking Day at the Capitol, an essential event dedicated to advocating for the future of the trucking industry.
This is your opportunity to engage directly with lawmakers, discuss the challenges facing our industry, and promote solutions that will drive trucking, logging, and transportation forward across Louisiana. Your voice is critical in shaping policies that impact our businesses, our workforce, and our economy.
The day begins with a networking breakfast featuring a statewide elected official, setting the stage for meaningful discussions. From there, we’ll walk to the state capitol to attend a key legislative hearing, where participants will gain firsthand insight into the legislative process and effective advocacy strategies.
In the afternoon, we’ll strategize next steps, ensuring our message is strong, unified, and impactful. The event will conclude with a high-stakes advocacy meeting, providing one last opportunity to reinforce our priorities with decision-makers.
Your presence makes a difference. Join us and help shape the future of trucking in Louisiana!
