Dear OOIDA Member,
A bill that will repeal the 2013 requirement that all federal, state and larger local government entities withhold 3% of the payments they make to businesses that do work for them will be voted on by the U.S. Senate TODAY.
The Senate will begin debating and amending H.R. 674 (http://www.ooida.com/Documents/HR674-112th.pdf) sometime early this afternoon and is scheduled to vote on the bill’s final passage early this evening.
With the help of many truckers, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 405-16 to pass H.R. 674 a few weeks ago. Now it’s the Senate’s turn to do the right thing.
Please call both of your Senators today and tell them to support H.R. 674!
