You are the president of the American Association of Construction Manufacturers (AACM), a trade association that represents seven hundred companies who build and sell heavy construction equipment. Members have proposed a number of initiatives to advance AACM interests. First, some members want an AACM advocacy group to lobby Congress for relaxing trade barriers on importing raw materials and parts. Second, some of the smaller AACM members want an advertising campaign promoting the importance of the AACM in order to increase small firm membership. Third, some members propose to segregate regions of the United States into sales territories, whereby only certain members have access to certain customers within a geographic area. Fourth, a group of socially conscious AACM firms want its members to boycott a large supplier that sources from nations with poor human rights records. Evaluate the business and legal (antitrust) implications of each of these proposals.
