Every Vote Counts
The 2012 election is important to TIA, its members, U.S. businesses,
and the nation as a whole. Education and action are the key to ensuring
leaders are elected who will reflect our individual preferences.
This “Election Resource Guide” provides TIA members and
their employees with resources that identify how legislators and
candidates stand on key issues. TIA staff has attempted to identify only
well-respected, non-partisan information and voter guides that span
National, State and local elections. Also included are reminders on how
to register to vote. Every vote counts … members of the toy
industry can – and will – have an impact on the outcome of
the 2012 election.
