MLMIA Retains Jonathan Emord

Here is an audio post from the Multi-Level Marketing International Association (MLMIA) web site. The speaker is attorney Jonathan Emord, who has been retained by the MLMIA in the matter of FTC R511993 and, I am certain, the legal challenges that will undoubtedly result if the commission moves forward with the provisions as they stand today.
