IADA Legislative Directories to be Mailed
|
|
|
Unfortunately, we had to find a new provider for our bi-annual IADA Legislative Directory and these are now being printed and should be mailed to the membership soon. The new format includes your legislators' photos and contacts in color for the first time. These will be current for the remainder of this year and in 2022. This will be a useful guide for our membership as we continue to further enhance your grassroots efforts in helping us represent the dealer voice. Watch for our upcoming Legislative Alerts as we will soon begin our Advocacy Campaign in contacting the Governor's Office seeking his support of SB 58 - which restores the trade in tax credit; HB 3940 - Increases dealer compensation for warranty work and parts, disallows manufacturer surcharges; provides for adjustments to time allowances; SB 573 - 90 day drive away permit and $20 dealer title; and HB 2435 - Amends the Franchise Act to prevent a manufacturer from prohibiting a dealer's offer of secondary products and prohibits a manufacturer from mandating that a dealer use only manufacturer approved or endorsed secondary products.
