NRMCA will host its third-quarter "DC Day" on Wednesday, June 17 and/or Thursday, June 18. Please join your industry peers on Capitol Hill to advocate for swift passage of a long-term, fully funded highway bill this year, a permanent ready mixed concrete Hours of Service 30-min break rule exemption and resilient construction tax credit issues impacting the ready mixed concrete industry

Details for the event include the following:

Who: Members of NRMCA’s Government Affairs Committee and Board of Directors and any association members are invited to participate. 

What: The third of the committee's quarterly "DC Days" is an opportunity to meet with your congressional members and their staff to talk about issues of importance to our industry. This quarter's DC Day will focus specifically on educating key members of the new 114th Congress about FMCSA's Hours of Service regulations and how Congress can fix them, passage of a long-term, fully funded transportation bill and resilient construction. 

When: Wednesday, June 17 and/or Thursday, June 18 (you may select one or both days for Hill visits)

Where: Washington, DC 

Why: Congress has returned from Memorial Day Recess and has seven weeks to find the funding to pass a multi-year highway bill or pass another extension. It is critical for you to attend the June DC Days to meet with members of Congress to discuss passage of a long-term, fully funded transportation bill and also to make sure that NRMCA’s priorities are included. Face to face advocacy is the best way to help lawmakers understand our industry and the impact of their decisions on businesses in their state. You are your best advocate for your business. Taking the time to educate decision makers can help ensure that fixes to issues result in positive outcomes for the entire ready mixed concrete industry.
