Spring is on the way across the country. With better weather on the horizon, I hope many of the weather-related issues our members have faced are coming to an end.
I can’t believe that the end of the first quarter is upon us. I hope those who have decided to accept the second round of PPP loans have had success getting their money – I have seen and heard there is quite a bit of funding left. I am sure your local financial agencies have information about applying for the second round and having the first round forgiven.
Membership dues are coming in very nicely and I want to thank everyone for their support not just financially, but in supporting the direction that the association is moving.
We need to keep our eyes on the activity going on in Washington. The threat level is very high concerning our industry as congress weighs new legislation that would affect us all. We anticipate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will begin focusing on enforcement and abusive practices, which so many people wrongly place on collateral recovery. In addition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stepped into the arena, trying to make policies and mandates that are beyond their scope under the guise of a public health emergency. Support the Repo Alliance as our lobbyists continue to fight for your future and the future of your entire industry.
ARA is working on three large projects that will bring even more value to your membership and give us the footprint we need to show everyone the unified strength that the association provides. God bless you, and as always, I want to thank you for allowing me to serve you and the industry.
Cordially,
Dave Kennedy
ARA President
