Oct 14, 2024

Nashville, Tennessee - Today, the American Trucking Associations recognized Stormie Janzen, Total Transportation of Mississippi's vice president of safety and recruiting, with the 2024 Cathy Evans Highway to Victory Award for her dedication to advocacy on behalf of the trucking industry.

"Stormie's advocacy has been instrumental in ensuring truckers' voices are heard, and her efforts have directly benefited America's supply chains," said ATA Chief Advocacy and Public Affairs Officer Ed Gilroy. "When ATA needed help putting pressure on key Members of Congress to advance a crucial legislative initiative, this industry leader worked with colleagues and State Trucking Associations to lead a grassroots movement to push our bill forward. When that bill becomes law, it will be due in no small part to her invaluable support."

Janzen has a long record of advancing trucking's agenda dating from her time as an ATA staffer to her current role as a leader at Total Transportation of Mississippi.

She is an active ATA member, sitting on the Federation's Safety Policy Committee, Controlled Substances Subcommittee, Driver Health & Wellness Subcommittee, Membership Committee and ATA's Women in Motion Council.

Named for longtime ATA lobbyist Cathy Evans, the Highway to Victory Award is presented annually to an ATA member who has made significant contributions to the Federation's advocacy efforts at the state and federal levels. Past winners include:

• John Chipman Jr., Chipman Relocation & Logistics
• Mike Card, Combined Transport Inc.
• Robert Low, Prime Inc.
• Randy Guillot, Triple G Express
• Robert Haag, Perfect Transportation
• Greer Woodruff, JB Hunt
• Derek Leathers, Werner Enterprises Inc.
