Recognizing Small For-Hire Transportation Businesses as Essential Community Services.

The House of Representatives supports designating a week to honor small businesses in the for-hire transportation industry (like taxis and medical transport). While non-binding, the resolution highlights the vital role of over 18,300 local companies that transport more than 2 billion people annually. This aims to draw attention to the importance of these services for families, patients, and vulnerable communities.
