GCLA Heads to the Hill 2/13

California operators head to Sacramento to lobby for the industry each year for GCLA’s Day on the Hill Sacramento — The Greater California Livery Association (GCLA) will be holding its annual Day on the Hill—as well as a training day to ensure the day’s efforts are as effective as possible—in February.
