Register for Roofing Day in D.C. 2021

Join NRCA for Roofing Day in D.C. 2021, which will be held March 23-24 in a virtual format; the purpose of the event is to bring the roofing industry together to meet virtually with members of Congress and their staffs and deliver the industry’s message with “one voice.”

Roofing Day in D.C. was designed to fulfill NRCA CEO Reid Ribble’s vision for raising the roofing industry profile and expanding our influence in Washington, D.C. It is crucial members of Congress hear about the critical issues facing your company, especially during a time of transition. NRCA encourages you to include field employees and others to attend the event and speak with one voice to Congress about the issues that mean the most to the industry.

As you meet virtually with members of Congress and congressional staff to discuss federal issues of importance to the roofing industry, speaking with one voice in a unified manner is crucial. The advocacy issues for Roofing Day in D.C. 2021 are increased funding for career and technical education to address workforce shortages; a strong buildings component in federal infrastructure legislation; and immigration reform that meets the roofing industry’s workforce needs.

Participants will take part in a March 17 Advocacy Training and Technical Webinar; the webinar will be recorded so attendees can view it at their convenience. There also will be a Virtual Kickoff Event with NRCA CEO Reid Ribble and keynote speaker Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), which is optional for attendees; the program will include an advocacy issues briefing.

On March 24, participants will have virtual meetings with members of Congress and congressional staff. Three to five appointments will be scheduled lasting about 15-30 minutes each.

Roofing contractors are encouraged to have one or more standout crew members participate in the virtual format to help share the industry’s story. Registration for virtual Roofing Day in D.C. 2021 is $59 for company representatives, and $25 for field workers/students/spouses.
