Composites Advocacy

ACMA’s Composites Advocacy Program brings together industry members interested in influencing the legislative process.  By becoming composites advocates, industry professionals can join forces to speak with one voice—a strong voice for the composites industry. ACMA has the resources to help you become a composites advocate, including ACMA’s Political Action Committee  (ACMA PAC) and the newly formed Congressional Composites Caucus. To ensure your company’s voice is heard in Congress, make sure that at least one person from your company participates in this program.
