NLBMDA Releases 2015 National Policy Agenda

[Washington, DC] – The National Lumber and Building Material Dealers Association (NLBMDA) released its national legislative and regulatory policy agenda for 2015. The document brings focus to the common interests of the industry and includes policy goals for continued growth in our nation’s housing and building industry.

“Lumber and building material dealers play an important role in the building supply chain, and the health of the American economy depends in part on a strong residential housing market,” said NLBMDA Chair J.D. Saunders, Vice President of Economy Lumber in Campbell, California. “The 2015 NLBMDA National Policy Agenda provides a common-sense, pro-growth framework that eliminates unnecessary regulatory burdens, creates jobs, and promotes sound fiscal policies needed for sustained economic expansion”

NLBMDA will continue its work with Congress and regulatory bodies to advance pro-growth policies that will strengthen small businesses and protect the many multi-generational family-owned businesses in the industry. The association’s agenda includes the industry’s positions on: housing & construction policy; tax & economic policy; legal reform & consumer protection; workforce policy; the environment, health, & safety; product supply & trade; energy policy; transportation policy; and highway safety.
