The motor vehicle industry locally and nationwide is facing new challenges as new laws and regulations promote a more digitized and electrified future. There are some policy makers who don’t see the value of local motor vehicle businesses. Some even wonder why vehicle safety inspections are necessary or why they can’t order a car online.

While the NHADA community knows that “local matters,” our legislators need to be reminded that the contributions of our members are absolutely critical to the functioning of the economy of the State of New Hampshire.

Our state legislators must be made aware of our industries’ critical role in the health and success of the economic life of New Hampshire. When legislators propose new laws to further regulate businesses, they need to be made aware of the potential impacts these laws would have on the health of our economy and the safety of our citizens.
