URGENT: States Making Life Impossibly Hard for Truckers, Who Can't Find Food and Bathrooms

 
Article by Megan Fox in "PJMedia":

In this unprecedented crisis brought to us by the lying Communists in China, the COVID-19 pandemic panic has gone too far. America's truckers, the people we rely on to restock our empty grocery shelves, are being treated like disease vectors and worse, they've been forgotten.

The state of Pennsylvania thought it was a good idea to shut down all the rest stops where truckers sleep, including closing the bathrooms—until the trucking lobby caught the ear of the president. Thirteen rest stops have been reopened in Pennsylvania, but our truckers are being forced to use porta-Johns that are far dirtier than the public bathrooms. How is this helping?

It's not just rest areas, but restaurants are closing their dining rooms, even in truck stops. Truckers can't go through drive-thrus. How are they supposed to eat while they are killing themselves to bring us toilet paper and fresh produce? Companies receiving the goods aren't even letting the drivers use their bathrooms.

 This has to stop, people. We owe our truckers more consideration than this. Read this thread from a trucker on Twitter and feel ashamed. Then call your representatives and tell them to do something about this. It begins, "TRUCKERS NEED YOUR HELP" and describes the terrible conditions they are faced with due to the WuFlu lockdown.

TRUCKERS NEED YOUR HELP
I don't know how else to get our industry help. I'm concerned and feel disappointed, discouraged, and disrespected. We are breaking our balls to supply Americans during this crisis my location has quarantined us completely from the entire facility...

 It's an outrageous offense against the people who keep this country running. Duane Plessinger is one of the truck drivers I interviewed. He posted on Facebook about the challenges he is facing. We should take this very seriously.

Everybody wants truck drivers to get the toilet paper to the stores, along with everything else they want, but think about this. Pennsylvania has closed its rest areas, I'm sure other states will be also. Restaurants have closed except for Drive-Thrus, In case you haven't noticed, big trucks don't fit in drive-thrus. Many McDonalds have truck parking but you have to go inside because you can't walk up to the window. Also most of the restrooms on INSIDE. Inside is closed. Where are drivers supposed to get food and to pee?
