Legislative Partners
The entire HVACR channel often works in close coordination on legislative and regulatory issues. Similarly, HARDI distributors share business interests with wholesale distributors in many other trades. These legislative partners may provide references materials, participate in coalitions, or coordinate efforts with HARDI:
HVACR Industry Partners
Wholesale Distributor Associations
Contractor/Installer Associations
Manufacturer Associations
Business and General Distribution Partners
Advocacy Resources
Non-Profit Trade Associations, Lobbying and Tax-Exempt Status
Membership dues paid to Heating Airconditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI) may be deducted as a business expense but not as a charitable contribution. HARDI has elected to pay the proxy tax on expenses attributable to lobbying and political expenditures so 100% of members' dues may be deducted as a business expense.
