Nonprofit and taxable business activities operate under the umbrella of Far West Equipment Dealers Association and its board of directors. New directors are nominated to represent the principal areas of the association, considering an adequate mix of the major suppliers, but most importantly, a willingness to serve.
Rob Jackson of Stotz Equipment shared safety concerns with Asm. Heath Flora shoul the Assembly enact AB 2110 in California.
Far West Equipment Dealers Association provides a comprehensive legislative and regulatory compliance tracking service customized for Far West members and their businesses. This program offers FWEDA dealer members with real-time access to proposed and pending legislation and regulatory actions across our seven states.
Association members serve as state legislative liaisons who monitor and report on legislative and regulatory affairs in their respective states, assisting FWEDA staff and the board, and other association members and industry partners as FWEDA continues to work with public affairs specialists to support dealer interests as they arise. State legislative liaisons are an important part of ensuring FWEDA remains vigilant in protecting dealer business interests.
Contact us if you or someone you know would like to volunteer to become a legislative liaison for FWEDA.
FWEDA's Board of Directors formed the “Friends of FWEDA” Silent Auction Committee to coordinate and drive the annual fund-raising event, which raises money for workforce development and legislative programs. The Friends of FWEDA committee, appointed by the board, is tasked with developing an action plan and budget, recruiting and coordinating volunteers, fund-raising and executing the auction each year. Anyone interested in serving on the committee should contact association staff or any board member.
Contact us if you or someone you know would like to volunteer to help with the annual FWEDA Convention and Silent Auction.
