RVs Move America Week 2026 will begin May 31 in Washington, D.C., bringing together recreational vehicle industry stakeholders for a week of advocacy meetings, committee work and networking focused on the industry’s future growth and policy priorities.
The event opens with two days of committee meetings involving volunteers from across the RV industry.
Participants will work on developing a strategic roadmap intended to guide future industry growth while receiving updates from association leaders on the state of the RV sector.
Attendees also are scheduled to hear from political speakers about administration policies affecting businesses and the broader economy.
A key component of the week will be Advocacy Day on June 3, when industry representatives will meet with federal policymakers. The meetings are intended to strengthen relationships with lawmakers and advance policy positions viewed as important to the future of the RV market.
During congressional meetings, advocates will focus on four primary issues, including tariffs, public lands, tax deductions and congressional support for the RV industry.
On tariffs, advocates plan to argue that broad-based trade measures can negatively affect domestic manufacturers that depend on materials not currently available within the United States. The industry is seeking what it describes as a targeted approach that maintains pressure on foreign competitors while limiting impacts on U.S. businesses.
Public lands policy also will be a central topic. Advocates are expected to support the America the Beautiful Act and the reauthorization of the Legacy Restoration Fund, which is intended to address a maintenance backlog that exceeds $40 billion.
Tax policy discussions will center on the “No Tax on Car Loan Interest” deduction included in the One Big Beautiful Bill.
According to the announcement, the deduction currently excludes most recreational vehicles, making them ineligible for up to $10,000 per year in interest deductions on newly purchased, U.S.-assembled vehicles. Industry representatives are seeking language that would explicitly include all RVs within the deduction’s definition.
Advocates also will encourage lawmakers who are not members of the House and Senate RV Caucuses to join the groups. Industry representatives view the caucuses as important channels for educating policymakers about the American-made RV industry and its economic impact.
The event provides an opportunity for participants to build partnerships, exchange best practices and gain insight into economic and political developments affecting the outdoor recreation economy.
Attendees are also being encouraged to use the EventMobi mobile application, which will provide schedules, event locations and networking tools throughout the week.
