National Open Commerce and Safer Highways Coalition - 119
Recently the FTC and FMCSA announced new rules that would adversely affect the Towing Industry and those who supply and support the industry. Luckily, a large group of towers from around the nation worked tirelessly to create a new Coalition not only to fight against these new proposed rules but to combat the negative stereotypes and misunderstanding of the costs and challenges we face while trying to keep America's roads and commerce flowing.
NOCSHC isn't simply talking about doing something about it, they are doing something about it. They already have D.C. lobbyists and two D.C. law firms who specialize in the FTC Rulemaking process on the ground and digging in.
The coalition is here to fight for every tower in the United States but they need your help. Please check out NOCSHC.com and their Facebook page National Open Commerce and Safer Highways Coalition to learn how you can help and donate.

Falsely Accused - 118
There is a war being waged against the towing industry by insurance companies and trucking companies simply trying to improve their bottom line.
We all know there are bad actors within the towing industry but they are few and far between. We are all currently being accused of being that small group and people are manipulating the data in an attempt to crush our industry so they can increase their profits. This episode is a must-listen for every tower in the United States.
We told you this was coming and now it's here. This is going to be a difficult, very expensive battle that's going to require our entire industry to stand together.
