The threat to racing isn’t over. While many lawmakers across the country are supporting the RPM Act, a Congressional bill that will save our industry and pastime, many elected officials have yet to sign on as co-sponsors. SEMA encourages members of the racing community to continue to tell Congress to support this critical bill.

SEMA member companies can easily share these Facebook and Twitter posts on your own social media platforms. Encourage your followers to write Congress and share these posts with their friends and contacts. Every letter counts!
