Working together with our members, VMA amplifies our members and the voice of the manufacturing industry on legislative and regulatory issues. VMA’s government affairs activities work to shape a business environment that supports growth, competitiveness and compliance, and educating policymakers on the vital role of our industry is an important part of the work VMA does for its members.
In April, VMA met with the offices of Representatives Wesley Hunt (TX- 38), Brian Babin (TX-36), Tim Moore (NC-14), Randy Feenstra (IA-4) and Tom Emmer (MN-06) to discuss the importance reinstating 2017 tax provisions and consistent trade policy, and the need for a definition of PFAS substances that excludes fluoropolymers.
