Our coalition against the anti-aftermarket replacement parts bill has been successful as the bill died in committee on April 12, 2019. We will do all we can to make sure this bill does not resurface in some other form and become law in the Silver State. Thanks to all who sent letters, emails, made telephone calls and testified on the bill. For additional information on our coalition and efforts in Nevada, contact CAWA's Director of Government Affairs, Jennifer Zins at [email protected] or 916.871.0603.
