Cargo theft losses surged to nearly $725 million last year, according to CargoNet, and the problem is no longer local or opportunistic.

Cornell explains how cargo theft provisions were added to the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act (CORCA), what the legislation would do differently, and how federal tracking, task forces, and prosecutors could help motor carriers, brokers, and shippers fight back.
