The 2022 mid-term election will be held on Tuesday, November 8, and it’s important to know which candidates support racing when going to the polls or voting early. With the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate up for grabs this fall, the racing community has a chance to shape the outcome of this election.
When casting your vote, it’s important that you consider which lawmakers have stood up for the interests of racers and motorsports-parts businesses by supporting the Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act (RPM Act), H.R. 3281 and S. 2736, which guarantees the right to modify street cars, trucks and motorcycles into dedicated race vehicles and safeguards the industry’s right to offer parts that enable racers to compete.
Visit SEMA’s vote racing page for information on voting in the mid-term election, including absentee and early voting, and identifying your lawmakers and the candidates running in 2022. SEMA’s Vote Racing page also includes a list of the lawmakers who have publicly supported the RPM Act and are up for re-election this fall.
