Spero Georgedakis at the ATA Call on Washington 2025
As a newly elected member of the MSC Executive Committee, Good Greek’s founder represented Florida and the national moving industry at the ATA’s annual Call on Washington.
At Good Greek Moving & Storage, we believe moving is about more than trucks and boxes — it’s about families, safety, and trust. That’s why we’re proud to share that our Founder and CEO, Spero Georgedakis, recently represented both Florida and the national moving industry in Washington, D.C. during the American Trucking Associations’ (ATA) Moving & Storage Conference “Call on Washington” held September 9–11, 2025.
This annual event brings together lawmakers, regulators, and industry leaders to tackle the most important challenges facing U.S. household goods transportation. As a newly elected member of the MSC Executive Committee, Spero stepped into a national leadership role, lending his voice on behalf of movers, military families, and consumers across the country.
Spero in Washington: Key Takeaways
- Spero Georgedakis was elected to the MSC Executive Committee of the American Trucking Associations — bringing Florida representation to a national leadership role in the moving industry.
- CDL reform was the central topic. The Safer Truckers Act (Senator Ashley Moody) would require lawful U.S. residency and English proficiency. The reform gained urgency after the August 12 crash in St. Lucie County, Florida that took three lives.
- Good Greek is expanding nationwide: Las Vegas, Nevada via partnerships with UNLV Rebels and the Vegas Golden Knights, with Midwest expansion next.
Advocating for safer roads and smarter policies
Spero met with Senator Moody, Senator Scott, Congressman Mast, and Congresswoman Lee to discuss CDL reform after the August 12 St. Lucie County crash.
During the summit, Spero met with Senator Ashley Moody, Senator Rick Scott, Congressman Brian Mast, and Congresswoman Laurel Lee to discuss urgent reforms and protections for both the moving industry and the families it serves.
A central topic was the Safer Truckers Act, championed by Senator Moody. This legislation would establish stronger requirements for Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDLs), including lawful U.S. residency and English proficiency. The goal is simple: make sure those operating heavy trucks on our nation’s highways meet the highest safety standards.
This reform became even more urgent following the tragic August 12th crash in St. Lucie County, Florida, where three lives were lost due to unsafe trucking practices. For Good Greek, founded in South Florida, this was a sobering reminder of why reform matters.
As Spero put it:
“Moving is one of life’s biggest transitions, and it must be done with professionalism, safety, and integrity. In Washington, I was proud to elevate the voices of movers and consumers across the country, advocating for reforms that safeguard communities, support our military families, and strengthen trust in our industry.” — Spero Georgedakis, Founder & CEO, Good Greek Moving & Storage
Key issues on the Hill
Beyond CDL reform, the delegation pushed for military PCS access, DP3 improvements, the Household Goods Shipping Consumer Protection Act, and recognition of Moving Month.
In addition to CDL reform, delegates worked to advance several priorities critical to families, service members, and the industry at large:
- Uniform access standards at military bases to prevent delays during PCS (Permanent Change of Station) moves.
- Improvements to the Defense Personal Property Program (DP3) following the termination of the Global Household Goods contract.
- Support for the Household Goods Shipping Consumer Protection Act (H.R. 880 / S. 337) to stop fraudulent movers and brokers.
- Recognition of May 2025 as “Moving Month” (H. Res. 428), celebrating the skilled workforce that helps over 7.5 million Americans move across state lines each year.
