Our Mission—Empowering Repair, Enabling Progress

The Repair Association is a coalition of businesses and consumers devoted to shaping informed public policy. We are committed to upholding the values of customer service, community engagement, and environmental sustainability.

 

The Impact of Repair—Strengthening Communities, Fueling Economies

Repair is more than a service; it's a community-builder and an economic catalyst. Our members not only extend the lifespan of products but also drive cost savings for consumers and generate local employment.

Fighting For You

Through our work in the legislature, we protect you from monopolies and anti-competitive practices that stifle innovation, restrict small businesses, and disadvantage consumers.

Join us in the fight for high-paying, working class jobs and a robust local economy.

A Competitive Repair Market is Vital to The Economy

When manufacturers own the only repair shop around, prices go up and quality goes down. Competition is better for customers, but mom and pop repair shops are struggling with unfair practices by multinational corporations. Consumers and repair professionals are starting to fight back.
