RV Industry Reacts to Election Results

Following the re-election of President Donald Trump to another four-year term as president, RV PRO asked RV industry experts for their reaction to the news.

From RV Industry Association (RVIA) President & CEO Craig Kirby:

“The RV Industry Association congratulates president-elect Trump on his election victory. We are prepared to work with the new administration and Congress to ensure that the needs of the RV industry, our members, and the millions of RVers across the country are well represented.

“We look forward to the opportunity to continue building on the productive relationship we developed with the first Trump administration, which was instrumental in addressing key issues impacting our industry, including the passage of the Great American Outdoors Act. We are committed to collaborating with the incoming administration and with Congress to support American manufacturing, further strengthen the economy, boost outdoor recreation, and promote the growth and vitality of the RV lifestyle nationwide.”

RV Dealers Association President Phil Ingrassia also weighed in:

“With Donald Trump set to return to the White House and a new Congress taking office in January, there will be fresh opportunities to foster growth within the RV industry and encourage more Americans to explore the great outdoors through RV travel. RVDA and its allies will urge the new administration and Congress to prioritize the passage of the Travel Trailer & Camper Tax Parity Act, fixing the unfair floorplan interest deduction disadvantage faced by some RV dealers who sell nonmotorized travel trailers.”

 RVDA added that the organization has developed talking points on the Travel Trailer & Camper Tax Parity Act for members to share with their elected representatives.

 RVDA also noted that, together with its outdoor recreation business partners, it will continue to advance policies that enhance access to the nation’s public lands.
