🚨 CALL TO ACTION: Help Us Advocate for Practical Clean Emission Policies 🚨 The Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) Rule is putting our industry—and the entire economy—at risk. We fully support efforts to reduce emissions, but the reality is that the necessary infrastructure is simply not there yet. 🚛 What’s the Problem? 🔴 Massachusetts and New England lack the charging infrastructure for medium- and heavy-duty electric trucks. 🔴 Dealers don’t have vehicles suited for our work. 🔴 The electrical grid cannot support the widespread charging needed at this time. 🔴 Businesses, contractors, and suppliers across the region will be impacted—leading to higher costs, project delays, and job losses. 📢 What We’re Asking For: ✅ A seat at the table for industry stakeholders to help craft regulations that make sense for everyone. ✅ A delay in the rule until infrastructure, technology, and funding catch up. ✅ Policies that are practical and sustainable for businesses and communities. We need your voice! Click the link below to email your elected officials and urge them to delay this rule until a realistic plan is in place. Add a personal message about how this impacts your business and industry. 💪 Our economy depends on a construction and transportation sector that can function efficiently. If we don’t act now, this rule will cause widespread disruptions that hurt everyone—from businesses to consumers. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ghmVgET8 🚨 This is our moment to make a difference—let’s stand together! 🚨 #PracticalPolicy #CleanEmissionsWithRealSolutions #StakeHoldersParticipation #ACT #BostonConstruction #NothingBeatsPassion #LoveWhatYouDo #DrivenByPurpose #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON Trucking Association of Massachusetts

🚜 WLF Company Store – By Popular Demand! We’ve received a lot of requests, so we’re making it easier for everyone to access W. L. French gear! The WLF Company Store is now available, offering the same branded apparel and gear that our team wears every day. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dfZ-ms7R Just a quick note—WLF doesn’t make any money from this store. We set it up simply because we couldn’t keep up with the demand for gear. Whether you’re a part of the WLF family or just a fan of what we do, we appreciate the support! #FrenchFriday #OurTeam #NothingBeatsPassion #DrivenByPurpose #LoveWhatYouDo #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON

Merry Christmas from all of us at W. L. French Excavating Corporation! 🎄 This holiday season, we are filled with gratitude for our incredible team, clients, and community. As we celebrate, we wish you and your loved ones a day full of joy, warmth, and lasting memories. 🎁✨ Merry Christmas Everyone!🎅 #MerryChristmas #HappyHolidays #WLFrenchFamily #MerryAndBright #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON

🎄 Merry Christmas from Our Family to Yours 🎄 As we come together to celebrate the holidays, our hearts are filled with gratitude for the many blessings of the season. However, we also take a moment to think of those who cannot be with us—our brave, active service members overseas, our veterans, and those who never came home. This year, we were honored to host the Wreaths Across America Convoy at W. L. French, a powerful reminder of the importance of remembering, honoring, and teaching about the sacrifices made by our heroes. We are happy to share a video from earlier this month that highlights the Convoy’s stop on its way to Arlington National Cemetery. May the spirit of Christmas bring comfort to those missing loved ones tonight and remind us all of the strength and unity within our families and communities. From our family to yours, we wish you a warm and joyful Christmas Eve. Let us take a moment to hold close the memories of those who gave everything for our freedoms. 🇺🇸💚❤️ @WreathsAcrossAmerica #RememberHonorTeach #MerryChristmas #HappyHolidays #Gratitude #GodBlessAmerica #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON
