Along with meeting with lawmakers during the Day on the Hill, dealers will get a chance to hear from influential legislators and hold one-on-one discussions during events at the NIADA Policy Conference.
The Policy Conference Sept. 23-25 will feature a private retreat for dealers to the Capitol Hill Club with a group of U.S. Senators. Last year’s event included John Thune (R-S.D.), Mike Lee (R-Utah) and several others. The relaxed atmosphere will allow dealers a chance to speak with the senators about different issues facing the used vehicle industry.
During the Day on the Hill, the lunch break will feature a legislative update from U.S. Representative Marc Veasey (R-Texas).
Registration is open for the Policy Conference at niada.com/policyconference. Aug. 13 is the deadline to register for the Policy Conference and to book a hotel room. Rooms are limited.
The early deadline also allows NIADA staff time to schedule meetings with lawmakers from dealers’ home districts.
Last year, dealers held more than 100 meetings with members of Congress and their staff, discussing issues important to the industry.
The popular PAC dinner will return with regions competing for the PAC Cup by raising the most money for the NIADA PAC. The NIADA PAC supports candidates who understand issues facing independent automobile dealers in our nation’s capital.
