AAHOA finds itself at a crossroads. We need effective leadership in the C-suite of the organization - the time is NOW. With franchisors continuing to raid the hard earned dollars of small business owners and trying to return to pre-Covid standards (without any comprehension of the reality of an inflationary environment and historic labor struggles), we need a leader who is ready for the task at hand. Someone who has run a small business or businesses themselves, has a strong sense of the political landscape and the intricacies of bipartisan solutions, and most importantly, has the FRANCHISEE'S interests at heart.

Keith Miller is that individual. Here is what government leaders have to say about Keith:

"Keith, I really want to thank you for educating so many policy makers and connecting us with so many people who are actually experiencing this on the front line." - (Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Rohit Chopra on June 24, 2021)

"I want to take a second to thank and recognize Keith Miller, a Subway franchisee from California, who has been a tireless advocate for franchisees, and who actually brought all of this to the attention of my Chief of Staff and the top staff for my subcommittee." - (Rep. Jan Schakowsky (IL-9), Chair of the Consumer Protection Subcommittee in the House Energy and Commerce Committee, on June 25, 2021)

Here is Keith Miller's statement on the franchising model to the Senate Banking Committee: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LopHn3jmjng

Keith's extensive background and track record as a franchisee advocate is well documented. Let's not make the mistake of hiring individuals with questionable alliances. Make the right choice. Please reach out to AAHOA and suggest Keith Miller for the role.
