Legislative Initiatives – Sue try to run a summary of
this year’s activities in the newsletter. Sue said the
NMVTIS/Affidavit bill has been signed by the gover-
nor to go into effect on January 1, 2016. Jay with
ADD who is a speaker at the upcoming Summer Out-
ing will be talking about this and the effect on Iowa
auto recyclers. The Counterfeit Airbag bill also
passed this session. The Rebuilder Tax Basis bill did
not go through this legislative session so far this year
but hey keep trying. The Sales Tax at the Pool issue
will be our next legislative focus. Sue suggested we
need to draft a redefinition for clarification of code to
go forward with this into next year’s agenda. Jim will
make this a priority.
