Werner Enterprises Inc discloses no governance process for aligning its lobbying or engagement activities with climate goals, explicitly stating “No, and we do not plan to have one in the next two years” when asked if it has a public commitment or position statement to conduct engagement in line with the Paris Agreement. We found no evidence of any policy, monitoring procedure, or oversight structure—such as a named individual or committee—to govern direct or indirect lobbying alignment with climate objectives, and the company does not disclose any mechanism to review or manage policy advocacy in relation to its climate stance.

Werner Enterprises offers only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It acknowledges engaging on the broad topic of biodiesel use in Class 8 trucks and taking “an active leadership role with the ATA on various climate change legislation,” but it does not identify any specific bill, rule, or regulation. The company says it has “actively engaged with policymakers” and worked with the Governor of Nebraska and the American Trucking Associations, which reveals who was approached yet leaves the method of engagement—such as meetings, letters, or formal submissions—unclear. Its stated stance of “support with minor exceptions” signals a general policy preference but fails to spell out the concrete amendments or regulatory changes it seeks. Together, these disclosures give only a high-level picture of the issues, channels, and objectives of Werner Enterprises’ climate lobbying without the detail needed for full transparency.
