The partners of the North American Concrete Alliance* are encouraging members to save the dates for the “Cement & Concrete Virtual Fly-In”.
With a new Administration,
changes in Congress,
COVID-19 relief funding for
highways and airports, & other dynamics,
2021 in an important time to support our
advocacy efforts in Washington, DC.
Join the cement and concrete industry for a scheduled VIRTUAL event on April 20 through 22, 2021 to meet with congressional officials to discuss issues impacting the industry. The cement and concrete industry collectively has 620,000 employees and contributes more than $100 Billion each year to our nation’s economy. The two-day event presents an opportunity to discuss issues impacting the industry with Congressional offices and other top federal officials.
Additional details will be announced in the weeks ahead, but partners, members, and colleagues are urged to participate in this event as we move forward to inform and influence the 117th Congress to take pass a robust highway bill and to address funding issues, including a long-term solution to the Highway Trust Fund shortfall.
