NRCA’s annual Roofing Day in D.C. was held April 16-17 in Washington, D.C. This year, nearly 250 roofing professionals from 39 states engaged with 229 congressional offices.

Participants encouraged their members of Congress to co-sponsor the Main Street Tax Certainty Act (H.R. 4721/S.1706) and the American Innovation and R&D Competitiveness Act (H.R. 2673/S.866), support increased funding for Perkins Career and Technical Education State Grants, and support the Stronger Workforce for America Act (H.R. 6655).

Florida and Ohio sent the most attendees; the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants and Tile Roofing Industry Alliance tied for largest organization representation for 2024.
