AASA is the only organization which exclusively represents the
legislative and regulatory interests of the North American automotive
aftermarket supplier industry.
Public policies can significantly impact your business – and AASA is on
your side. We work to raise awareness at the state and national level
that motor vehicle parts suppliers are this country’s largest single
manufacturing industry, directly employing more than 783,000 people
across the United States and indirectly employing 1.97 million more.
Members benefit from AASA’s access, intelligence, analysis and advocacy
on a wide range of public policy issues. AASA also provides forums
through member committees and task forces to discuss issues and respond
with responsible policy positions.
- Legislative Summit: This annual event is AASA members’
chance to meet face-to-face with our nation’s senators and
representatives to discuss important issues facing the aftermarket
industry.
- iStateLink Access: This state-by-state legislative and
regulatory analysis which is continually updated with the latest
information is a free service to members valued at $35,000 per annual
individual subscription.
- Biennial Ride & Drive: Every other year, AASA members
have the opportunity to demonstrate the latest aftermarket technology
to Congress and representatives of regulatory agencies in a one-on-one,
hands-on setting.
- Government Affairs Committee / Regulatory Affairs Committee:
AASA members can participate in the GAC and RAC quarterly meetings,
setting the AASA agenda in Washington and the states, and contributing
to proactive actions on legislative and regulatory issues.

legislative and regulatory news and information through its twice-weekly
