ST. LOUIS, MO (October 1, 2019) — The Equipment Dealers Association (EDA) in conjunction with its four affiliate associations, are pleased to announce that they will be hosting a joint legislative fly-in on March 23-25, 2020 in Washington, D.C.

The groups, Far West Equipment Dealers Association (FWEDA), Iowa-Nebraska Equipment Dealers Association (INEDA), Midwest-Southeastern Equipment Dealers Association (MSEDA) and United Equipment Dealers Association (UEDA), represent agriculture and outdoor power equipment dealers throughout North America and are looking forward to the opportunity to connect their members with their Congressmen and women.

“This is one of the most important events that we put together each year,” says Natalie Higgins, EDA’s VP of Government Relations.  “Association staff can lobby on behalf of the dealer body all day long, but the representatives in Congress truly want to hear from their constituents.  It’s critical that we facilitate these meetings to give our members the opportunity to discuss our industry’s legislative priorities and the impact, positive and negative, that certain bills have for equipment dealers.”

Dealers interested in participating can register here.

Limited sponsorship opportunities will be available for the Fly-In. For more information, contact EDA’s Director of Communications and Marketing, Alex Hoffman at ahoffman@equipmentdealer.org.
