Clientele Spotlight: Black History Month 2023

Posted on February 3, 2023 by - Black History Month, trucking industry, trucking industry facts

Here at ExpressTruckTax, we are dedicated to helping guarantee truckers and trucking companies a simple and easy Form 2290 filing experience. We also acknowledge the amazing efforts drivers put in to keep our nation running. It is officially February, which means it is Black History Month. 

Black History Month was first suggested by Black United Students at Kent State University in 1969 and was soon adopted as a celebration around the country. In 1976 it was recognized by President Gerald Ford during the United States bicentennial, urging Americans to honor Black Americans and their accomplishments throughout history. In recent years, the trucking industry has seen steady growth in the amount of African American drivers in the industry. This means the industry is becoming more diverse and inclusive as a whole. 

As far as contributions to the transportation industry go, there have been many significant and impactful contributions made by African Americans throughout the years. One of these important figures is Garret Morgan who became known as the “Father of Transportation Technology” because of his invention of the traffic signal in 1923. 

Another important contribution to the transportation industry was made by Frederick McKinley Jones, who invented the mechanical transport refrigeration unit which is seen in today’s reefer freight haulers. He won the National Medal of Technology in 1991 for his invention. This has made it possible for trucks and train cars to transport fresh and frozen foods long distances. 

Meredith Gourdine also made an important contribution to the transportation industry with his development of an exhaust purification system in 1967. This invention is known as the catalytic converter, which helps minimize harmful emissions released into the air. 

In the mid-1970s through the 1980s, Dr. Gladys West, a famous African American mathematician programmed a 7030 Stretch computer. It was designed to map the shape of the earth and aided in the development of the Global Positioning System (GPS). 

Here at ExpressTruckTax we value and celebrate our African American clients and want to make sure they all have the best filing experience possible. We also want to take the time to highlight some of our fantastic African American clientele and business owners that have generated their 2290 or 8849 Forms with us. We want to hear about your filing experiences!

Atención a la Clientela: Mes de la Historia Asiático-Estadounidense del Pacífico Asiático

Posted on May 13, 2022 by - Customer spotlight, Express Truck Tax Customer spotlight, form 2290 Customer spotlight, Spanish

Si el Mayo es conocido por su clima más cálido, también es un mes para celebrar los logros, los talentos, los logros y la resiliencia de la comunidad de Asiáticos Estadounidenses e Isleños del Pacífico (AAPI), que abarca más de cincuenta grupos étnicos que hablan más de cien idiomas. Originalmente se conocía como la Semana de la Herencia AAPI, pero luego se cambió para abarcar la duración de todo el mes de Mayo para celebrar mejor los logros de los estadounidenses de origen asiático y los habitantes de las islas del Pacífico. La razón por la que el mes de Mayo tiene importancia para los Asiático-Americanos y los Isleños del Pacífico es que Mayo es el mes en que los primeros inmigrantes japoneses llegaron a los Estados Unidos, pero también es el mes en que se construyó el Ferrocarril Transcontinental en 1869, donde los inmigrantes chinos jugaron un papel muy importante en su construcción.

En honor al Mes de la Historia del Pacífico Asiático, ExpressTruckTax quiere tomarse el tiempo para destacar a algunos de nuestros increíbles clientes de AAPI y/o dueños de negocios que han generado sus Formularios 2290 o 8849 con nosotros.

Si desea que se presente su empresa o desea destacar una empresa de camiones propiedad de AAPI que le encanta, comuníquese con support@expresstrucktax.com.

Clientele Spotlight: Asian American Asian Pacific History Month

Posted on May 6, 2022 by - AAPI Heritage Month, Customer spotlight, ExpressTruckTax customer spotlight, feature spotlight, form 2290 Customer spotlight

While May is known for its warmer weather, it is also a month to celebrate the achievements, talents, accomplishments, and resilience of the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Community which encompasses over fifty ethnic groups speaking over a hundred languages. Originally it was known as AAPI Heritage week, but it was later changed to span the duration of the entire month of May to better celebrate the accomplishments of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

The reason the month of May holds significance for Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders is that May is the month that the first Japanese immigrants came to the United States but it is also the month that the Transcontinental Railroad was built in 1869 where Chinese immigrants played a large role in its construction. 

In honor of Asian Pacific History Month, ExpressTruckTax wants to take the time to highlight some of our amazing AAPI clientele and/or business owners that have generated their 2290 or 8849 Forms with us.

If you would like your business featured, or want to shout out an AAPI-owned trucking company you love, reach out to support@expresstrucktax.com.

We will feature these businesses through a Facebook post upon your approval.
