Holiday Season Brings Joy, Optimism
Every year at this time, as the Holiday season comes around, one of my favorite movies, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation seems to be on a constant loop on TV.
Congress May Disappoint, but Advocacy is More Important than Ever
Q: What’s the difference between the government and the mafia?
A: One of them is organized.
Apologies for the bad joke, but as I watch the latest drama unfold in Washington, D.C., I have to believe it’s better to laugh than cry. Our current political newsfeed is a seemingly endless cycle of disaster followed by catastrophe. One moment our legislative branch is, by the thinnest of margins, avoiding an economically devastating government shut down, and the next they are ousting the Speaker of the House in a historically unprecedented move.
As D.C. Flirts with Another Shut Down, Dealers Stay Focused
Small business owners don’t always see eye-to-eye with big government. We have different goals, different values, and a different work ethic. Never are those distinctions more on display than when Congress starts its now semi-regular dance of ‘will we or won’t we’ shut down.
Dealers Count
In our business, numbers count for a lot.
Congress Needs to Pick a Lane on EVs
When it comes to EV sales and production, there are countless issues worthy of discussion and debate, including tax credits, domestic production capabilities, safety requirements, and our nation’s charging and electric infrastructure. However, dealers and consumers are coming to the realization that looking for a roadmap from Congress showing us the path to real and lasting EV adoption in this country is a fruitless endeavor.
