Earlier this month, SEMA's Washington, D.C., office organized the SEMA/PRI Pennsylvania Rally at the state capitol in Harrisburg, bringing together automotive leaders to engage with lawmakers and advocate for industry-supportive policies.
Participants tackled several vital legislative issues during their discussions with state lawmakers, and Pennsylvania's historical alignment with California's motor-vehicle emissions laws was a significant focus. Attendees strongly advocated for the state to maintain its current stance of not adopting California's 2035 ban on new internal combustion engine (ICE)-powered vehicles. Other critical topics included the corporate net income tax rate and net operating losses for small businesses.
