to Gasoline Dealers, and HB 3096: An Act Promoting Fairness in Gasoline
Product Marketing and Sales
An Act to Improve the Laws Relating to Ethics and
Lobbying
AIM takes the current ethics and
lobbying laws very seriously and supports appropriate standards for
lobbyists. We strive to satisfy both the letter of the law and spirit of
those standards and support efforts to ensure that all lobbyists do the
same. As a membership organization, however, we are greatly concerned
about the changes to the definitions of lobbying and incidental lobbying
and the chilling affect these changes will have on the democratic
process.
An Act Relative to Consumer Protection Laws
AIM legislation requires those seeking product-liability damages to
demonstrate that they have actually been harmed by the product. A fair
body of laws impartially interpreted with decisions reached in a timely
and predictable manner will contribute to a healthy civic and economic
climate.
An Act Relative to Reforming the State's Product
Liability System
Companies that make products
are often targets of frivolous and resource-sapping lawsuits brought by
parties looking for huge payoffs. AIM’s legislation reforms the
state’s tort system by making available a state-of-the-art defense
for manufacturers whose products meet all scientific standards at the
time they were made.
