Since 1973, the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association has been fighting for the rights of all professional truckers. We are proud of our history of effective representation, and as we grow, we will continue to fight for our members’ best interests in new and more powerful ways. Please follow the links below for a journey along a timeline of Association accomplishments, and you will see that OOIDA has made great strides during the past 45 years. We believe the biggest accomplishments are those yet to come, so if you haven’t yet joined OOIDA, there’s no time like the present to unite with over 160,000 members working to give all professional truckers a voice!
