Supporting the designation of the week of September 14 through September 20, 2025, as "National Truck Driver Appreciation Week".
H. Res. 508 is a non-binding House resolution introduced in the 119th Congress that expresses the House’s support for designating September 14–20, 2025 as “National Truck Driver Appreciation Week.” The resolution frames truck drivers as essential to the U.S. economy and daily life, highlighting their contributions in moving freight, supporting emergency and medical needs, and maintaining national security. As a resolution, it functions as a formal expression of sentiment and recognition, not as a law or a funding measure. If adopted, it would publicly acknowledge and encourage appreciation for truck drivers during that specific week, but it does not impose new requirements or create financial obligations. The bill’s operative language is largely ceremonial; the body’s support signals acknowledgment of the trucking industry’s role and the sacrifices of truck drivers. The extensive “Whereas” statements provide context and statistics to illustrate the impact of trucking on the economy and daily life.
