Last week, NMMA was in Sacramento to present Assembly member Tasha Boerner Horvath the Legislator of the Year Award and attend the California Boating Congress (CBC).

In 2021, Assemblymember Boerner Horvath sponsored AB 335 which allows manufacturers of recreational boats and marine engines to receive and retain specific contact information for buyers of its products for the limited and exclusive use of conducting product safety recalls and warranty verification.
