The ABPA is actively engaged in protecting the interests of our members and the industry via legal and legislative efforts.
Support the ABPA Legal & Legislative Fund
The aftermarket industry is facing unprecedented challenges — from aggressive design patent enforcement to rapidly evolving state and federal policy proposals. To proactively defend our members and advance the interests of a competitive marketplace, the ABPA maintains two critical funding areas: the Legal Fund and the Legislative Fund.
This single contribution form allows you to support one or both of these vital efforts.
The Legal Fund
Protecting Market Access Through Targeted Legal Action
The Legal Fund supports ABPA’s work on design patent issues, legal analyses, and actions necessary to preserve fair competition. Contributions help us engage experts, conduct pricing and impact studies, and respond swiftly when member access to parts is threatened.
Your support strengthens the aftermarket’s legal standing and ensures your business has a voice in cases that shape the industry.
The Legislative Fund
Advancing Policy Solutions That Benefit the Industry and Consumers
The Legislative Fund fuels ABPA’s advocacy in Washington and state capitals across the country. This includes supporting meaningful reforms such as the REPAIR Act and preparing for upcoming improvements to the SMART Act’s design patent provisions. Contributions also help ABPA educate lawmakers and provide credible data-driven research that influences policy outcomes.
Your support helps protect consumer choice, reduce repair costs, and promote a level playing field.
