Print this Article | Send to Colleague
NRMCA will host its fourth quarterly DC Days for 2016 on Thursday, December 1. Please join your industry peers on Capitol Hill to help educate Members of Congress and their staffs regarding advocacy issues impacting the ready mixed concrete industry. This will be your last opportunity to discuss how the laws that they pass in the 114th Congress impact your day-to-day operations.
Who: Members of NRMCA’s Government Affairs Committee, Board of Directors and any association members are invited to participate.
What: The fourth of the NRMCA’s Quarterly "DC Days" for 2016 will focus on advocacy outreach regarding the Timber Innovation Act (TIA).
When: Thursday, December 1
Where: Washington, DC
Why: NRMCA will continue its STOP the TIA (Timber Innovation Act) efforts from advancing in the House and Senate. The TIA bill authorizes The Department of Agriculture to promote wood as the building material of choice in tall building structures – 85 ft. and above. Last year’s legislative successes were a direct result of ready mix industry champions who made participating in NRMCA’s DC Days a priority. This is our last chance to lobby Congress before the 114th legislative session comes to an end. If they don’t hear from you about how laws they pass impact your day-to-day operations, chances are they will hear from your competitor.
