The Long Haul | Who Is Fighting for the American Trucker – A Straight Talk with Harvey Beech

Truck drivers don’t need another feel-good message. They want honesty. In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Harvey Beech, co-founder of American Truckers United, a third-generation trucking operator who has lived every side of this industry — company driver, small fleet owner, and long-haul carrier. Harvey speaks plainly about what many drivers feel but few are willing to say out loud: how immigration policy intersects with trucking, why wages have been compressed, how safety standards have eroded, and why the sacrifices of seasoned American drivers often go ignored. This is not a political episode. It’s a reality check — from someone who was born into trucking and never left it. ⁠Follow The Long Haul Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
