During the National Conference of State Legislatures’ annual Legislative Summit last week in Boston, the RV Industry Association (RVIA) Government Affairs team presented the annual National Legislative Award to Indiana State Senator Blake Doriot (R-IN) for his tireless support and advocacy of the RV industry.
A few of the ways Sen. Doriot has championed the RV industry include:
- Sponsoring the Senate Concurrent Resolution 15 in 2020, urging the establishment of an Office of Outdoor Recreation Development within the Indiana Destination Development Corporation.
- Sponsoring legislation to clarify the treatment of transport workers, enabling the industry to reduce the backlogs of inventory moving from factories to dealers.
- Working with the RV Industry Association and the RV Dealers Association to put together legislation based on the RV Industry Association-RV Dealers Association model RV-specific franchise bill, which he introduced as Senate Bill 484. Sen. Doriot guided this legislation through both the Senate and House, where it received nearly unanimous approval and was signed into law by Governor Braun in early April.
RVIA saluted Doriot for his service to the people of the 12th Senate District of Indiana and appreciate his steadfast defense of the RV industry.
