How Jewelers Of America Represents Your Business

For more than three decades, Jewelers of America has been advocating on behalf of the jewelry industry in Washington, D.C. We’ve played a key role in fighting against legislation that hurts jewelry businesses – from luxury taxes in the early 90s to estate taxes and everything in between. We’ve also been a strong proponent of measures that help jewelers, like sales tax fairness and most recently, legislation that targets retail crime. 


As an organization, we rely on the support of Jewelers of America members to ensure these efforts are successful. Quite simply, without the voices of jewelers and the day-to-day stories they can share behind the messaging and talking points, our outreach would fall on deaf ears. That’s why we’ve developed advocacy plans and tools that capitalize on the collective power jewelry businesses have when they work together for a common outcome.
