We are less than one month away from the 2021 TIA 3PL Policy Forum. We are excited to bring back this significant in-person event, where TIA Members from across the United States travel to Washington, D.C., to lobby on behalf of their business, TIA and the 3PL industry. The 2021 Policy Forum allows TIA Members to partake in the legislative process and advocate on critical issues that directly impact how our members do business. This year, one of the key issues will be the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) Program.
This is your Association, and we need your voice! Please register today to join us in Washington, D.C., on September 28-29.
