                        HONORING BILL HENDERSON

                                 ______
                                 

                     HON. EARL L. ``BUDDY'' CARTER

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 22, 2026

  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Bill 
Henderson, a Savannah-based commercial truck driver, on a milestone 
achievement in American trucking.
  After 37 years behind the wheel, Bill recently completed four million 
consecutive accident-free miles, becoming just the fifth driver in 
XPO's history to reach this distinction. To put that number in 
perspective, four million miles is roughly 160 trips around the globe.
  Every one of those miles was driven while hauling freight that keeps 
Georgia's economy moving and our shelves stocked. Bill's discipline 
behind the wheel has kept his fellow drivers and everyday Georgians 
safe on our highways.
  Professional truck drivers like Bill are the backbone of our supply 
chains, and safety records like his are a testimony to his daily 
commitment.
  On behalf of the 1st District of Georgia, I congratulate Bill on this 
remarkable career achievement and thank him for his decades of service 
on our roads.
