               SUBCOMMITTEE ON SURFACE TRANSPORTATION

               UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

                                ON

         'THE INFLUENCE OF THE MOTOR CARRIER ACT OF 1980

                     ON TEAMSTERS' EMPLOYMENT



Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We are here today at your request to discuss the impact of

regulatory reforms in the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 (the act) on

Teamsters' employment.  Last year we issued a report at the

request of Senator DeConcini entitled Effects of Regulatory

Reform on Unemployment in the Trucking Industry, (GAO/CED-82-90,

June 11, 1982).  At that time we pointed out that there was a

strong relationship between high trucking unemployment and the

general downturn in the economy.  This relationship made it hard

to determine the effect of the regulatory reforms on unemployment

in the trucking industry.
