Position Papers
With the 119th Congress well underway, the Tire Industry Association (TIA) has reaffirmed its federal advocacy goals with the release of updated legislative position papers.
These documents outline the most pressing federal issues impacting TIA’s membership and serve as a central component of the association’s policy strategy in Washington.
Crafted annually by TIA’s Government Affairs Committee and approved by the full Board of Directors, the position papers are designed to educate lawmakers, federal agencies, and stakeholders on the association’s views regarding key legislation. They clearly communicate the policy changes TIA supports, including proposed bill language, and provide insight into how legislative outcomes could affect businesses across the tire industry.
TIA’s position papers serve as a practical resource for policymakers, offering not only background on each issue but also a clear call to action. Whether supporting the passage of a specific bill or opposing harmful regulatory changes, the documents help ensure that the voice of the tire industry is heard in ongoing legislative debates.
The newly approved position papers have been distributed to members of Congress, tire manufacturers, the press, and TIA members. As living documents, they will continue to evolve alongside legislative developments and industry needs.
