Lots of groups don't have a large enough voting block that politicians care. I don't see you giving them compassion, perhaps it is because the trucking industry is something you care about 
I don't see any logic behind their protest or how these companies would go out of business. If everyone's cost of fuel rises than their prices would rise accordingly. It isn't like the increase of fuel costs is going to affect only certain trucking companies.
I don't think it would be a terrible idea if the transportation industry shifted towards something that had a lower cost per mile for long hauls (ie rail).
