MARKETING TOOLKIT
Make your voice heard for the franchise community. Help pass the American Franchise Act.
Use this toolkit to spread the word about your participation at the IFA’s 2026 Advocacy Summit, encourage others to join you in D.C., and show your commitment to passing the American Franchise Act.
WHY SHARE?
When you post or reach out to your contacts, your voice helps bring attention and encourage participation in the IFA Advocacy Summit and our efforts to pass the American Franchise Act. When you're on Capitol Hill meeting with legislators your voice brings visibility to the policies that protect and strengthen franchising.
The American Franchise Act represents a historic opportunity to provide long-term certainty for franchise business by codifying a fair joint employer standard and protecting the franchise business model. But meaningful legislation only becomes law when lawmakers hear directly from the people it impacts.
Advocacy works, and it starts with you. Together, we can help deliver the certainty and stability franchising deserves.
