摘要

WASHINGTON—2013 will be a roller-coaster year for the tire industry, full of both opportunities and perils, according to Washington representatives of two trade associations. Congress didn't change much in November, but President Obama's victory portends a continuance and even a strengthening of the Obama administration's aggressive regulatory agenda, according to representatives of the Rubber Manufacturers Association. "We're expecting a full regulatory agenda on environmental issues," said Daniel Zielinski, RMA senior vice president.
