Beyond the SEMA Show

Mike Spagnola, President & CEO of Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA), joins us to talk about the iconic SEMA Show and the important work the organization is doing behind the scenes to support the automotive, diesel, and parts industries. He covers key issues like tariffs, Leno’s Law, and the political efforts SEMA is driving beyond their annual event.

Quick note: Around the 10-minute mark, there’s a brief cut in Mike’s video feed due to some technical difficulties—thanks for sticking with us!
