Video Exclusive! JA CEO And Lobbyist On Tax Fairness And Other Retailer-Friendly Wins In Washington January 31, 2018 (0 comments)
Scottsdale, AZ--One of Jewelers of America's biggest roles in the industry is to fight for nationwide legislation that helps retail jewelers compete on a level playing field. For that task, the organization turns to Major General Tim Haake, an attorney in Dentons' Washington, DC office, who has served for decades as JA's lobbyist for its political action committee, JAPAC. He and JA CEO David Bonaparte were part of a special panel presentation at Centurion Scottsdale, detailing the steps and victories JAPAC has had toward gaining sales tax fairness for brick-and-mortar jewelers against online sellers, and other issues of importance. See accompanying story here.
