Aftermarket to Rally on Capitol Hill in Record Numbers

Two highly visible and controversial issues: The Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act and asbestos litigation reform, are fueling aftermarket company support and interest for the summit.

"This year, we see a growing sense of appreciation by members of the very real benefits of getting directly involved in the legislative process," said Alfred L. Gaspar, AAIA president and CEO. "It's gratifying to see a realization among individual businesspersons that they can make a difference in protecting their industry and their own company."

"The Legislative Summit is a full-court press to score on issues critical to our industry's overall future health and for individual businesses as well," Gaspar said. "This is the aftermarket's opportunity to make a direct statement to legislators about the economic and political strength of our industry."

Co-sponsors of the summit include: Alliance of Automotive Service Providers, Alliance of State Automotive Aftermarket Associations, Automotive Warehouse Distributors Association, Coalition for Auto Repair Equality, Heavy Duty Distribution Association, Service Station Dealers of America and Tire Industry Association.
