Legislative Protection
TMDA gives you strong representation before the state legislative and administrative bodies that have the right to regulate and tax you. Only when many voices speak as one are your interests protected in the fields of labor, legislation and public relations. TMDA monitors the activities of the legislature and agencies whose rulings affect your business – both motor vehicle and personal watercraft legislation.
