Texas Cigar Merchants Association

RETAILERS | DISTRIBUTORS | MANUFACTURERS

Mission

TxCMA uses every viable means available to stand against taxation without representation and unfair anti-smoking laws that impact fellow merchants and purveyors of the cigar trade.

WHO

TxCMA's objective is to leverage resources and coordinate actions concerning impactful legislation. Together, we present a united front to those who would unnecessarily restrict freedoms by collecting and disseminating information among our members and when necessary issue a call to action. TxCMA works with a lobbying consultant who provides guidance and input into creating and maintaining the association’s political relationships in Austin.

ADVOCACY

TxCMA understands that advocacy involves a multifaceted approach. Through a combination of watchdog and lobbying techniques, we hope to educate both our association members and legislative decision makers regarding State of Texas administrative and legislative changes.

In politics, it pays to have friends who will not only listen, but take action on your behalf. The TxCMA’s Political Action Committee is your microphone and the hammer every association must have to be effective in politics.

The anti-smoking groups in Texas are stuffing their campaign war chests with donations to limit your right to smoke and conduct business. What are you doing to stop this?
