MADA Board and NextGen Team Making a Difference for Dealers

The MADA Board of Directors, along with dealers representing the next generation of automobile professionals, recently made a significant impact at the Mississippi Capitol. Their visit underscored the importance of maintaining strong relationships with state legislators and advocating for the interests of the automobile industry in Mississippi.

“Having a strong presence at the Mississippi Capitol is a vital component of MADA’s grassroots strategy,” said Board Chairman Paxton King. “I think it makes a difference when legislators see dealers at the Capitol.”

Before heading to the Capitol, the board of directors and NextGen dealers participated in a board meeting, discussing key industry topics and initiatives that will shape the future of automobile dealerships in the state.

While at the Capitol, the dealers had the opportunity to observe both the House and Senate in action, gaining valuable insight into the legislative process. A highlight of the day was the recognition of the dealers from the gallery, as legislators acknowledged their presence and the important role they play in the state’s economy.

The day’s activities concluded with an engaging lunch featuring Rep. Lee Yancey and Sens. Jason Barrett and Chad McMahan. This gathering provided a valuable platform for discussions on industry-related legislative matters and provided further insight on the legislative process.

The participation of MADA’s Board and NextGen team in these legislative activities highlights their commitment to ensuring a prosperous future for automobile dealers across Mississippi. By fostering meaningful connections with legislators and staying engaged in policy discussions, MADA continues to be a strong advocate for the industry.
