NLA Day On The Hill - Advocating For The Industry
May 14-15th
What's It All About?
The National Limousine Association's Day on the Hill is an annual event where NLA members meet with their elected representatives in Washington, D.C. in an effort to educate them on the issues facing our industry.
The NLA is honored this year to have Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-New Hampshire) as our guest for our NLA Day on the Hill fundraising luncheon, taking place at Cornerstone Government Affairs on Tuesday, May 14. A long-serving member of the Senate Committee on Small Business & Entrepreneurship, Senator Shaheen is currently the committee chair.
Senator Shaheen is a long-time friend of our industry. She stepped up as our champion several years ago ago when the federal Department of Labor announced that they would compel companies such as ours to pay “overtime on gratuities.” Strictly because of her efforts, that crazy idea never came to pass. She has met with an NLA group numerous times during Day on the Hill visits over the years, and during the pandemic, both she and her senior staff made themselves accessible to hear our concerns.
