| In line with American public opinion, Plumbing Manufacturers International (PMI) members want safe and efficient water infrastructure, fair international trade that creates American jobs, and tax reforms that encourage investment and create growth.
A delegation of PMI member executives took to Capitol Hill this week to tell Congressional representatives about the important public health and economic roles their companies play while advocating for the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) WaterSense program and pro-growth tax and trade policies during PMI's annual Executive Forum and Fly-In. The Code Council was one of the participating organizations. PMI members attend the meeting each year to gain insights into economic trends from expert presenters and to strategize about how to further their interests within the current political environment. "This meeting provides a forum for PMI members to examine key, pertinent issues within our industry and to develop a collective vision of how to move the industry forward," said Misty Guard, International Code Council vice president and PMI member. "The Fly-In enables us to learn more about priority issues and brings about 'ah ha' moments through which you gain new insights," said PMI Board President Pete Jahrling, director, product engineering/intellectual property, Sloan Valve Company. "I can report these learnings to my management, discuss what they mean to us and plan how to gain the best advantage." |
