Montana Equipment Dealers Association Signs Memorandum of Understanding with AED

Schaumburg, Ill. – The Board of Directors of the Montana Equipment Dealers Assn. (MEDA) has approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) for their associations to collaborate on federal advocacy. 

“The MEDA members recognize the importance of aligning with a strong international equipment organization to lobby on federal policy,” said Brad Griffin, Managing Director of MEDA. “This agreement formalizes what has been in practice for many years between AED and MEDA.”

MEDA has been active and effective in Montana’s state legislature and has built strong working relationships with members of its Congressional delegation. This coordinated strategy with a partner such as AED further builds upon its efforts to provide additional value to MEDA members on issues of importance to equipment dealers.

For over two decades, Dr. Mitloehner has been at the forefront of research on how animal agriculture affects our air and our climate. With deep expertise in emissions and volatile organic compounds, his work initially focused on air quality in regions like California’s Central Valley—home to both the nation’s richest agricultural output and some of its poorest air quality.

In recent years, methane has taken center stage in climate discourse—not just scientifically, but politically. Once a topic reserved for technical discussions about manure management and feed efficiency, it has become a flashpoint in debates over sustainability, regulation, and even the legitimacy of livestock farming itself.
