Sacramento, CA -- As part of its new name and identity, The California Manufacturers & Technology Association (CMTA) today unveiled www.cmta.net, a comprehensive website, online magazine and legislative resource built specifically for manufacturers and technology based companies.

"Unlike any other website, www.cmta.net will go a long way in providing up-to-the-minute information to manufacturers across the state and will help provide an important link between California's legislators and businesses in their districts," said CMTA President Jack M. Stewart.

Among the numerous features are:

"Where else can industry go to find everything they need to know about the issues and people in Sacramento that directly affect their world," asked Stewart. "With a click of the mouse, manufacturers can get the day's pertinent news on their computer screens - from environmental issues in the legislature to PUC decisions on energy to developments in the Davis administration."

"With our need for quick and accurate information, Intel's government affairs operation is very excited about the resource CMTA is providing with its new online magazine and website," added Intel Director of Corporate Government Affairs, Richard Hall.

Industry from around the state can log onto www.cmta.net on a daily basis and get all the news, updates and information they need to stay on top of Sacramento and the issues affecting their bottom line.
