KYB Americas recently hosted U.S. Senator Todd Young at its Franklin, Indiana, manufacturing facility. The Senator’s visit included a plant tour, as well as a meeting with KYB staff to discuss several issues threatening the industry. Topics included the consumer’s right to access vehicle data, 301 China Tariffs as well as the proposed 232 Auto Tariffs.
“It is quite an honor to have a U.S. Senator visit our facility, he was incredibly gracious and listened intently to our concerns,” said Aaron Shaffer, KYB director of product and marketing. “We had a great dialogue. I believe the visit helped provide the Senator with a good understanding of the challenges our industry is facing. We look forward to continuing our conversation with Senator Young during the Auto Care Legislative Summit in September.”
The Senator’s visit was coordinated by the Auto Care Association and KYB.
