    A group of truckers is planning a "stop all tires" one day trucking strike across the country for Veterans Day as a warning shot against the Green New Deal. They claim to have 15,000 participants already and the movement is growing.

    "We will not participate in the leftist, Biden/Harris Green New Deal. We do not support the banning of fracking. The USA operates as a capitalistic economy and OIL is the fuel she survives on... we will STOP ALL TIRES for 24 hours on Veterans Day 11/11/20. If this is not effective and our leaders do not respect that blue-collar truck drivers are having to face domestic terrorism, primarily in democrat run cities all over the United States, and that we do not support the banning of fracking in any way, then we will have our second STOP ALL TIRES for FOUR full days 11/26/20-11/29/20." their statement said.
