In 
case you thought the US Congress really did nothing at all! 
  
The 
U.S. Senate passed Senate Resolution 493 (S. Res. 493) designating July 11, 
2014, as “Collector Car Appreciation Day.” The Resolution was requested by SEMA 
and its Automotive Restoration Market 
Organization (ARMO) and Hot Rod Industry Alliance 
(HRIA) councils. 
The date marks the fifth commemoration in what has become an annual event to 
celebrate and raise awareness of the vital role automotive restoration and 
collection plays in American society. 

S. Res. 493 was sponsored by Congressional Automotive 
Performance and Motorsports Caucus Co-Chairs Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) and Sen. 
Richard Burr (R-NC), along with Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK). The Senators are strong 
advocates for the automotive hobby in Washington, and S. Res. 493 reaffirms 
their understanding of the cultural importance of collector cars. The Caucus is 
an informal, non-partisan member organization that pays tribute to America’s 
ever-growing love affair with the car and 
motorsports. 

“We 
thank the U.S. Senate for its continued recognition of the collector car hobby 
as a valued American tradition and pastime,” said SEMA Vice President of 
Government Affairs Steve McDonald. “With Australia and Canada joining the 
celebration, Collector Car Appreciation Day has now become an international 
recognition of the collector car industry and the millions of hobbyists it 
supports. A number of states and local governments have adopted similar 
commemorative declarations as well.”
