This post was updated on April 19.
NAHB members will have the opportunity to discuss how the supply chain is impacting their bottom line with their members of Congress during the 2022 Legislative Conference on Wednesday, June 15 in Washington, D.C. The Legislative Conference, NAHB’ s most important grassroots event of the year, is a day-long event that coincides with NAHB’s Spring Leadership Meeting.
Registration for Spring Leadership and the Legislative Conference is now open.
Capitol Hill visits this year may look different from previous meetings with your members of Congress. In response to the pandemic and enhanced security protocols, the visitation rules are changing rapidly. Please double check procedures when scheduling your meetings. The House Sergeant of Arms is expected to release new guidance for visitors in the coming weeks. The updated policy will be posted on the 2022 Legislative Conference page as soon as it is available.
To help you prepare for the Legislative Conference, the NAHB Government Affairs team will provide a variety of resources, including an issues briefing webinar and a brochure you can give to your members of Congress. All materials will be posted on the 2022 Legislative Conference page.
A robust builder turnout on June 15 will help underscore the urgency for Congress to fix the lumber and building material supply chain crisis.
