Do not hesitate—sign up today for Roofing Day in D.C. 2023
Roofing professionals will gather on Capitol Hill April 18-19 to discuss the critical issues facing their companies and the roofing industry. And you know what? We’re making a big difference. So far, we have increased funding for career and technical education, advanced legislation that addresses workforce development needs and secured a strong buildings component in bipartisan infrastructure legislation.
This year, our Roofing Day in D.C. Advisory Committee, in consultation with industry partners, has picked three issues for Roofing Day in D.C. that unite the industry. First, we will present workforce shortage solutions, focusing on immigration reform, the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and funding for Career and Technical Education Perkins State Grants. We will also support important funding for the Department of Energy’s Building Technologies Office and support the Main Street Tax Certainty Act, which makes permanent the tax deduction for qualified business income set to expire in 2025.
To register and view the full itinerary, please visit www.nrca.net/roofingday and be sure to register by April 5.
