Joshua Yoder of the US Freedom Flyers, a recently formed group of American air, rail, and trucking professionals who believe in “the right to travel freely” regardless of one’s vaccination status, also appeared on the show to support the U.S. convoy.
“These are Americans who want their voices to be heard. We’ve been shut out for so long,” Yoder said. “There’s a lot of average people coming together, uniting … This is people speaking out and voicing their frustrations, and I think the government would do well to listen to us. It’s been far too long,”
Leigh Dundas, a civil rights attorney based in Orange County and known for her
fight against vaccine passports in that county, told The Epoch Times she has been working to unite truckers.
“I’ve been keeping the communication channels open between groups … acting as a de facto clearing house between different truckers who wanted to get connected … and do something similar, but also different from what Canada did,” Dundas told The Epoch Times on Feb. 15.
Dundas said she is urging American truckers to keep the U.S. convoy lawful and peaceful like their northern neighbors and to organize in such a way to keep out any “infiltrators,” who could potentially undermine their goal.
“They’ve done a lot of things right in Canada and we should be taking their lead,” she said.
For those involved, they said they hope the planned American convoy will be a turning point.
“For me personally, it’s about our freedoms as Americans,” trucker Mike Landis said on a video posted on The People’s Convoy website. “This isn’t just about us as truck drivers, or a certain group of people or anything. It’s about Americans. … This is for the people.”
Greg Abdouch, who heads up a grassroots group opposed to mask mandates for school children in Southern California’s Inland Empire, which includes parts of San Bernardino and Riverside counties, said in an interview with The Epoch Times that he’s in full support and thinks other groups, like his, will be too.
Though he said he commends the Canadian truckers, he predicts it will be “small potatoes” compared to what could happen in the United States.
“I feel like this is the moment in time where we’re actually making history,” he said. “I think you’re going to have soccer moms … getting in their cars, slapping a flag on the back, and driving behind this convoy,” he said.
