American International Automobile Dealers Association (AIADA)

Government relations: in its determination to protect the interest of the International nameplate Automobile Dealers, aiada placed strong emphasis on a full-scale government relations program. Aiada's main thrust was to monitor federal legislation in order to benefit the industry and opposed to anything that was harmful to the industry. Major areas of involvement included energy, trade, and tax legislation, arbitration, investment policy, small business taxation and auto regulations, and full efficiency standards.

Communications magazine: a legislative report is distributed by email to members of aiada's legislative action network and affiliated industry representatives every week congress is in session. Also, aiada published the day's industry news in firstup, which is distributed daily via email.

Industry relations/public relations: aiada maintained effective communications with its members. Auto distributors as well as national dealer councils helped identify issues affecting the International Automobile industry. In many cases, aiada worked closely with other industry associations such as the autos drive america Association, the national Automobile Dealers Association, national Association of minority auto Dealers, alliance for automotive innovation, and other state and metro dealer associations.
