On Wednesday, August 24th NHADA members showed their support for [Governor Sununu](https://www.governor.nh.gov/) at an evening reception in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. We were honored to co-host the event with Tim Ciasulli, founder of [Planet Honda](https://www.planethondanh.com/).

At the beginning of Covid-19, the governors of many states, including a few of our neighbors, were shutting down automotive sales and limited automotive services. 

After listening to the concerns of the NHADA and business owners, NH Governor [Chris Sununu declared auto sales and repair as an essential business](https://www.nhada.com/blog/governor-sununu-automotive-sales-and-service-are-essential) throughout the pandemic.

Imagine the negative impact upon your consumers and your operations if you had to shut down sales and/or service during the pandemic.

NHADA applauds Sununu’s actions as governor and when on the Executive Council as pro-business and pro-New Hampshire.
