While we generally try not to report on things until they are finalized, Advertising Age has a nice summary of the automotive legislation coming down the pipes, which still requires the presidential seal of approval.

The article can be found here. We'll be reporting further on this topic in the next issue of MacDonald magazine once the bill has been signed.
