SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 210
BY SENATOR MARTINY
A RESOLUTION
To urge and request the Senate Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection and
International Affairs to study laws governing the Louisiana Motor Vehicle
Commission and similar commissions in the United States.
WHEREAS, the Louisiana Motor Vehicle Commission ("commission") consists of
eighteen members and has jurisdiction over the sale and distribution of new motor vehicles
and recreational products; and
WHEREAS, the distribution and sale of motor vehicles and recreational products in
the state vitally affects the general economy of the state, the public interest, and the public
welfare; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to regulate and license those persons engaged in such
business in Louisiana in order to ensure compliance with law and to prevent fraud,
imposition, and abuse upon the citizens of Louisiana; and
WHEREAS, it is prudent and in the best interests of the state to review and study
how laws in other states govern this important industry in comparison to the laws in
Louisiana.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Senate of the Legislature of Louisiana
does hereby urge and request the Senate Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection and
International Affairs to study the laws governing the Louisiana Motor Vehicle Commission
and similar commissions in the United States.
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE
