Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) is pleased to announce the addition of Matt Lamy as Government Affairs Manager. Based in AED’s Washington, D.C. office, Lamy will play a vital role in advancing the association’s legislative and regulatory priorities in both the United States and Canada.
In his new position, Lamy will work closely with Daniel B. Fisher, AED’s Senior Vice President of Government & External Affairs, to advocate for pro-growth policies impacting the equipment industry. His responsibilities will include engaging with lawmakers and policymakers in Washington and at the state level, coordinating congressional visits for AED members, and helping members build direct relationships with key officials.
