Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein have invested heavily in lobbying efforts to reverse Obama-era restrictions on long-haul trucker work hours, spending $870,000 since 2014. Their company, Uline, has been a major donor to conservative groups, impacting political decisions. Recent changes announced by Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy allowed greater flexibility for truck drivers. Duffy also established a PAC funded by Uihlein to support his son-in-law's congressional campaign, illustrating the close ties between regulators and the businesses they oversee.
