NRMCA President Michael Philipps has delivered a letter to the White House thanking President Trump for his commitment to the industry. As a veteran of the construction industry with 33 years of experience, Philipps has a deep understanding of how the health of the American economy relies in part on the protection of the 600,000 jobs and livelihoods of the men and women who work for NRMCA member companies.
“Concrete is undoubtedly critical to rebuilding and strengthening our nation’s infrastructure, and we stand committed to building a more resilient, safer country," Phillips wrote. "At NRMCA, this goal is the driving force behind our advocacy work. Our national grassroots coalition, Build With Strength, consists of civic organizations, fire service professionals, architects, engineers and industry experts dedicated to enacting safer and more cost-effective building standards. Strengthening local and national building codes and improving American infrastructure is among our organization’s top priorities."
