Ember Brillhart – Manager, State Relations, Honda

The strong relationships Joe has nurtured over the years with legislative and executive leaders is clearly apparent. Joe played a critical role in drafting a bill and testimony that resulted in the passage of legislation outlawing the sale of counterfeit replacement airbags. His ability to communicate our position to the legislative leadership and administration officials created an awareness of the potentially deadly hazards posed to Marylanders by traffickers of counterfeit and non-functional replacement airbags and restraint system components. As a result of Joe’s efforts, Maryland became the 12th state in the country to enact such a law.
