Recent moves by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to proceed with a cross-border trucking program have raised some red flags with Rep. Peter DeFazio.

The Democrat from Oregon has called into question the agencys lack of compliance with statutory mandates that restricts implementation of a long-haul cross-border trucking program.

DeFazio outlined his concerns in a letter to FMCSA Administrator Anne Ferro.

He pointed out that Congress required the Office of Inspector General to audit FMCSA's readiness to enforce compliance with U.S. safety rules and regulations before the agency could initiate a pilot program as outlined in Section 6901 or Public Law 110-28. The law requires FMCSA to take action to address any issues raised by the IG and to report to Congress on the measures taken, DeFazio reminded Ferro.
