Everybody, I want to line this out clearly so everyone understands what McCown Co. LLC is being built to become.
We are not a rate-setting group. We are not here to tell carriers what they must charge, what loads they can take, or who they can haul for. Every carrier, owner operator, driver, and business must make their own independent business decisions.
What we are building is an accreditation, education, standards, and advocacy organization for the side of trucking that has been ignored for too long.
Think of what TIA does for brokers. McCown Co. is being built to mirror that kind of structure, but for the 92 percent of this industry made up of small carriers, drivers, families, and everyday Americans who believe in fair freight, fair labor, honest wages, transparency, and anti-exploitation laws.
Our mission is to organize the people who actually move this country and give them a national structure.
That structure will include 10 regions across the United States. Each region will help oversee the state representatives in that area. The state representatives will help manage congressional districts. The district representatives will help organize members, educate people, document industry abuse, support transparency efforts, and help push AFFTRA forward.
AFFTRA is the legislative side of this. That is where we fight for laws and reforms like broker transparency, fair driver wages, anti-retaliation protections, ethical freight practices, and accountability for exploitation in this industry.
McCown Co. is the organization. AFFTRA is the reform effort. The members are the power behind it.
We are not here to illegally fix prices. We are here to legally organize, educate, accredit, document, expose corruption, and push for laws that protect the people who move America.
If we stay scattered, nothing changes. If we organize correctly, professionally, and legally, we become impossible to ignore.
