The Window & Door Manufacturers Association released its 2023 National Policy Agenda, a comprehensive guide and resource for federal policymakers that identifies priorities and offers solutions to the biggest challenges impacting U.S. manufacturers in the housing and residential construction industry.
About the policy agenda
The 2023 WDMA National Policy Agenda is divided into 10 different policy areas: Energy Conservation, Building Codes, Environmental Stewardship, Building Safety, Housing and Economic Policy, Tax Policy, Product Supply, Trade Policy, Workforce/Workplace, and Immigration Reform.
The WDMA 2023 National Policy Agenda will be distributed to members of the U.S. Congress and key officials in the Biden Administration.
WDMA's thoughts
“WDMA continues to work with Congress and the White House to collaborate and implement fiscally sound policies that are meaningful on issues ranging from housing, energy efficiency and energy independence to workforce development and immigration,” says WDMA Chair Steve Tourek, senior vice president and general counsel for the Marvin Companies. “Our policy framework offers a comprehensive approach that will strengthen the U.S. economy and housing market by promoting sustainable manufacturing and residential construction across the country.”
“Window, door and skylight manufacturers are essential to housing and building markets that are key to a thriving economy,” says WDMA President and CEO Michael O’Brien. “WDMA is focused on partnering with Congress and the Biden Administration to advance legislative and regulatory policies that will keep U.S. manufacturers competitive and the housing and construction markets strong.”
