Teamsters Applaud House Passage of Funding Ban For Bush Mexican Trucks Program - 11/15/07By Doug Cunningham The House has passed a transportation bill that includes a ban on funding for Bush’s Mexican trucks program. The Teamsters' Leslie Miller says the union is happy about the vote, but it won’t necessarily end the battle to keep unsafe Mexican trucks off U.S. highways. [Miller]: “It's what we expected but nevertheless we're delighted. The Senate has to vote on it - again - and then President Bush has said he'll veto the bill. I don't know if there's going to be an override or not. So who knows? Thats up in the air. The other thing, though, that's going on is we're continuing our lawsuit against the Mexican truck program."
