White House 'strongly objects' to trucking provisions in T-HUD; veto likely

Even as a House committee gave it a procedural go-ahead, a funding bill that contains several provisions sought by the trucking industry would likely face a veto, the White House said Monday. The annual appropriations package for the Transportation and the Housing departments , also known as the T-HUD bill, includes policy riders that would extend a suspension of the restart rules contained in the 2013 change in hours of service, would permit twin 33-foot trailers on Interstates, and would block an increase in carrier financial responsibility minimums.
