Complete List of 2002 Meetings
Meetings Held in 2000-2001

AAIA in partnership with its state association allies has begun a series of meetings with U.S. Representatives in their home districts. These meetings are held in member facilities and generally attract 30 - 40 industry representatives. They provide a unique forum for members of the aftermarket to personally educate legislators about their industry and to acquaint them with legislation that would guarantee aftermarket access to the parts and information necessary for repairing late-model vehicles. Contact Megan Carpentier at (301) 654-6664 or megan.carpentier@aftermarket.org for additional details.
