Penske Truck Leasing Engages Pelosi Alum for Key Lobbying in Trucking Industry
Trucking Industry Landscape Shifts with Penske's New Lobbyist
Penske Truck Leasing Company is stepping up its lobbying game by hiring the OGR firm, which will advocate on pivotal issues affecting the trucking sector. These issues include regulations imposed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), especially concerning nitric oxide and dioxide (NOx) emissions as well as the transition to electric vehicles. The firm has enlisted the expertise of Dean Aguillen, a veteran in political strategy, previously serving as a senior adviser and director of member services for now-Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). This appointment underscores the critical nature of political engagement in the trucking industry.
