Print this Article | Send to Colleague

NRMCA encourages you to join your industry allies for the Transportation Construction Coalition’s (TCC) 2017 Legislative Fly-in on Capitol Hill on May 17-18 in Washington, DC. The registration fee of $175 includes conference materials, legislative briefings, continental breakfast, and a Capitol Hill reception. Cancellations after May 12 will be non refundable. This year’s meeting will be held at the Hyatt Regency Washington, at 400 New Jersey Avenue, NW, Washington, DC, 20001. To make your hotel reservation, please contact the hotel by calling 1-800-421-1442 or 202-737-1234. Ask for the group code: TCC Fly-In rate of $329 per night. The cut-off date for the hotel room block is April 17, 2017.
 
This year’s event will likely center around the incoming administration's plan for a $1 trillion funding package to modernize our nation’s transportation and infrastructure system. During last week’s Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee confirmation hearing for Transportation Secretary-designee Elaine Chao, Ms. Chao pledged to collaborate with Congress to seek every funding option possible to shore up the Highway Trust Fund’s looming deficit. NRMCA is committed to working with the incoming administration and Secretary-designee Chao – once confirmed – to help find a solution to this problem.
 
We will also host our next NRMCA Quarterly DC Days on Wednesday, May 18, in conjunction with the TCC Fly-In. NRMCA’s Quarterly DC Days is an opportunity for you to come to your nation’s capital to meet with your congressional representatives and their staffs to talk about important issues impacting the ready mixed concrete industry. This event will focus specifically on the $1 trillion transportation and infrastructure package and its potential impact to the ready mixed concrete industry. More details regarding both events will soon follow.
