Regulatory & Legislative Information
Compliance with the many applicable local, state, and federal regulations is often a complex matter. Information or guidance offered by ACMA should never be used as a substitute for experienced regulatory expertise or legal counsel. ACMA staff can recommend consultants and attorneys for members needing assistance in specific regulatory areas.
ACMA's Government Affairs Department provides extensive information and guidance to help our members efficiently comply with applicable regulations, standards, and codes, as well as to effectively participate in the development of legislation and regulations at the national, state, and local levels.
ACMA's Government Affairs programs are made possible through the support of ACMA member companies, and most of our products and services are available only to members.
Note to suppliers and consultants: Please do not share ACMA's products with your nonmember customers or clients; instead, tell them to join ACMA.
Note to regulators: For your own personal reference, ACMA will provide complementary access to our Government Affairs products; please contact John Schweitzer at ACMA.
