Presenting Asm Aguiar-Curry with the California Trucking Association’s Legislator of the Year Award for sponsoring AB2406

California’s AB2406, sponsored by Assembly Member Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, supported by the California Trucking Association (CTA) and passed by both houses of the state legislature, was signed into law by Governor Newsom last Friday.

Moving this bill forward is a huge win for cargo owners and motor carriers alike. It places significant restrictions and accountability around the assessment of demurrage and detention charges.

It becomes law on January 1, 2023, and we could not be more thrilled.
