21 2. Sacramento is closer to your business. Not just in terms of proximity, but in terms of your ability to build a relationship with your elected officials. Every week- end, for nine months of the year, your state legislator travels home to talk to people like you. California’s congressional representatives do not travel back nearly as often. 3. Issues that address the day-to-day operations of your business are addressed daily in Sacramento. Those issues range from what and how you can sell your products and services to regulations about your interactions with your employees. In other words, do not forget about Sacramento and the people there who govern your business. There is a reason why we have hundreds of dealership employees attend CNCDA’s New Laws Impacting Your Dealership Seminars every year. It’s time for you to make the invest- ment in the future of your dealership and your ability to continue doing business in the state of California. One of the best ways to do so is by contributing to CNCDA’s Political Action Committee (CNCDA PAC). CNCDA's PAC is one of your greatest resources for help- ing to elect legislators who not only recognize the impor- tant contributions of California’s new car dealers but are also willing to help pave the way for your business to suc- ceed in this state. CNCDA PAC has a proven track record for making smart investments in electable legislators. While next year’s election seems far away, it isn’t. California’s primary is now on March 3rd and California will once again be ground zero for critical campaigns. Our political opponents are gearing up for the battles ahead and you cannot afford to be left on the sidelines. 3 We have the road map.
