Robinson, the global leader in Lean AI supply chains, today responded to the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s decision in the Montgomery v. Caribe Transport case, which clarifies the legal framework governing how certain state-level claims may be applied to federally licensed freight brokers. While the company is disappointed with the outcome, it respects the Court\u2019s ruling and remains committed to safety, service, and compliance across the nation\u2019s transportation network.<\/p><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260514735666\/en\/799291\/5\/CHR_Logo_Horz_2C_RGB.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260514735666\/en\/799291\/22\/CHR_Logo_Horz_2C_RGB.jpg\" \/><\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260514735666\/en\/799291\/5\/CHR_Logo_Horz_2C_RGB.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260514735666\/en\/799291\/21\/CHR_Logo_Horz_2C_RGB.jpg\" \/><\/a><p>\n\u201cOur hearts continue to go out to the victims of truck accidents,\u201d said Dorothy Capers, Chief Legal Officer at C.H. Robinson. \u201cSafety is foundational to who we are\u2014our employees and their families travel these same roads, and our business depends on safe freight delivery. While we are disappointed in the Court\u2019s decision, we will continue to operate responsibly, support stronger federal enforcement, and work constructively with regulators, carriers, and customers to strengthen the national safety system and support safe, reliable transportation across the country. As Justices Kavanaugh and Alito stated in the concurrence, \u2018Importantly, the Court\u2019s decision today should not be read to mean that brokers will routinely be subject to state tort liability in the wake of truck accidents.\u2019\u201d<\/p><p>\nFor the millions of U.S. companies who depend on efficient, reliable, and safe supply chains, this ruling underscores the importance of working with a broker that offers the scale, technology and compliance processes needed to navigate this new freight landscape. C.H. Robinson will continue to select only carriers licensed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as required by law, support strong federal oversight, serve customers without disruption, and remain a trusted partner for shippers.<\/p><p>\nC.H. Robinson strongly supports stricter federal enforcement and higher safety standards, including urging Congress to pass Dalilah\u2019s Law. Separate from the Montgomery case, Dalilah\u2019s Law focuses on preventing non-compliant and undocumented individuals from obtaining CDLs and strengthening the federal system that determines who is authorized to operate commercial vehicles.<\/p><p>\nShipments we arrange overwhelmingly move without incident, with just one serious accident claim filed for every 500 million miles driven on our customers\u2019 loads. But even one accident is one too many. The company will remain actively engaged with policymakers and regulators to advocate for stronger federal oversight, clearer regulatory guidance, and a consistent national framework that supports safety and the efficient movement of goods.<\/p><p>\n\u201cC.H. Robinson uses industry-leading carrier-selection processes, and we believe in continuous improvement. Safety is paramount,\u201d said Capers. \u201cWe will keep working with policymakers, advocates, carriers, our customers, and others across the industry to strengthen the national safety system and advance practices that reduce accidents on America\u2019s roads.\u201d<\/p><p>\n<b>About C.H.
