Rep. Messmer joined the RV Caucus the same day that the reception took place. Messmer and Yakym spoke during the event, highlighting the importance of the RV industry and its impact on the economy in Indiana, the “RV Capital of the World.”

The House and Senate RV Caucus Members are the champions for the RV industry and RV lifestyle on Capitol Hill by advocating on behalf of the industry on issues such as campground modernization, taxes, and trade issues. As the RV industry prepares for 2026, these discussions are a key component of ensuring policymakers understand the industry’s impact and priorities.
