Advocacy, Legislative and Policy Updates
Public policy is important to NAFA members; how policies are developed and implemented can have significant impacts on fleet costs and operations. NAFA engages actively in public policy advocacy at the federal and state levels to ensure that policymakers understand how policy affects fleets and helps them develop policies that avoid unnecessary burdens on fleets. Whether it is engaging with elected officials and their staffs or with regulatory agencies, NAFA, and its members help to make the views of fleets heard by policymakers. NAFA members are fleet experts, and your voices are critical to effective advocacy by NAFA.
NAFAs advocacy activities are directly guided by the membership through the board and the board Government Affairs committee, as well as through NAFA’s regional organizations. We encourage NAFA members with an interest in public policy to engage with us to advance better policies for fleets.

As more fleets transition to electric vehicles, timely access to charging infrastructure and reliable power supply becomes critical. However, aligning fleet electrification with utility planning can be challenging.
