In preparation for the 2023 Legislative Conference on June 7 in Washington, D.C., NAHB members are encouraged to attend a live webinar on Wednesday, May 10, at 11 a.m. ET to learn more about the key issues to discuss with their legislators.
The Issues Briefing Webinar will feature NAHB policy experts who will provide members with the most impactful and timely information on the housing industry’s challenges. These high-priority topics will include strategies to address:
- The shortage of distribution transformers aggravating the nation’s housing affordability crisis;
- Making the right choice on energy codes; and
- Investing in workforce development programs to help the industry build the pipeline of new workers needed to meet the demand for new housing.
In addition to the webinar, the NAHB Government Affairs team has compiled various resources on nahb.org for members to help ensure their Legislative Conference meetings are a success. These tools include U.S. Senate and House directories, lobbying tips and template meeting invitations. Plus, issue videos to help prepare meeting talking points will be available in the coming weeks.
Registration is required to attend the briefing. A recording of the webinar will be available on nahb.org.
