TIA Commits to Right to Repair Efforts
(Akron/Tire Review) Fresh off the annual Automotive Aftermarket Legislative Summit (June 12-14), TIA has committed to gathering co-sponsors for the newly reintroduced Motor Vehicle Owner’s Right to Repair Act (HR 2694). Both National Automobile Dealers Association and ASA have reportedly increased their pressure on Congress to reject Right to Repair legislation efforts.
“The introduction of Right to Repair legislation in the states may be beginning to pay off,” according to Roy Littlefield, TIA executive vice president. “Members and staff were getting very favorable responses from the congressional offices we visited during the Summit. There were good signals that we’ll be getting a Senate bill as well this year.”
