“ACT 1 has had a long, collaborative relationship with �Ӱɴ�ý in support of the trucking industry in North America,” said Amy Boerger, vice president of sales at Cummins Inc. “The relationship has only continued to be enriched with Chris Spear and his leadership team. The ACT 1 member companies are all dedicated to the success of the trucking industry.”

“�Ӱɴ�ý and ACT 1 share the common purpose of promoting trucking as a safe, sustainable, and efficient industry and we are fortunate that ACT 1 will continue to partner with �Ӱɴ�ý throughout the year,” said Spear. “We can’t wait to welcome everyone to Atlanta for the TMC Annual Meeting and work together with ACT 1 on �Ӱɴ�ý’s important 2018 meetings.”
