Teamsters President Jim Hoffa says the omnibus spending bill Congress passed this week includes a ban on funding for Bush’s Mexican trucks program. Hoffa says Congress is helping make driving safer in the U.S. by banning funding of the program t oallow Mexican trucks unrestricted access to all U.S. highways. The Teamsters are suing in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to block the program. The suit is expected to be heard in February.
