CATA Legislative Consultant - Over the past few years the CATA has made huge strides towards recognition in local and state governmental bodies. One of the main reasons is the great support CATPAC/DEAC has been able to provide our legislative team. To that end it is of vital importance that we maintain that support in the upcoming years.

Our lobbying firm coordinates our efforts to maximize impact, but almost every CATA dealer member has governmental contacts who need to be catalogued, to assist in accomplishing our collective goals. Please assist us in this mission whenever you can help make contact with a member of government.

Dealers are strongly encouraged to participate in the collective efforts of the CATA by contributing to CATPAC.

CATA legislative efforts and governmental affairs are assisted by the Marquardt group and coordinated for our membership through the Board of Directors only.
