Assembly Resolution Establishes April as Automotive Career Month

The California State Assembly unanimously passed Assembly Concurrent Resolution 37 (ACR 37) by Assemblymember Mendoza to establish April as Automotive Career Month.

The California Motor Car
Dealers Association (CMCDA) is pleased to see the Legislature highlighting the rewarding careers in the automotive industry. Over 500,000 Californians are in automotive-dependent careers, and the demands for recruiting will continue to grow.

Californians showed their support of Career Technical Education (CTE) when they approved a general obligation bond for CTE in November of 2006. CMCDA is proud to also show its support by creating a Scholarship Foundation for automotive education.

"The California Motor Car Dealer Association is pleased to have raised nearly $500,000 for our Scholarship Foundation over the past two years,- said Peter Welch, CMCDA President. 'We could not be more satisfied with our members' commitment to automotive education.-
