Auto Care Government Affairs

Thank you @RepBarragan for meeting with CAWA and members Michael Kitching of GB Remanufacturing and Young Suhr Jr. of APW Knox – Seeman Warehouse to discuss the #repairact. #RighttoRepair

Today, I visited FleetPride in Kingsport, the nation's largest heavy-duty parts distributor - operating in more than 300 locations with thousands of employees across the country. FleetPride plays a crucial role in ensuring that heavy-duty vehicles are safely and efficiently returned to the road, a vital component in the integrity of our supply chain. By facilitating the swift repair and maintenance of heavy-duty vehicles, FleetPride directly supports industries that depend on transportation, impacting everything from commercial shipping to retail supply chains. As your federal representative, I will continue to advocate for policies that strengthen our nation’s supply chain!
