[Washington, DC] - The Window & Door Manufacturers Association (WDMA) released today the
2018 WDMA National Policy Agenda
a comprehensive advocacy agenda for 2018, which outlines important policy priorities for the window, door, and skylight industry that will boost the housing and construction industry and support continued job creation in the vital U.S. manufacturing sector.
"Window, door and skylight manufacturers are vital to the residential housing sector and a thriving economy. Washington has an opportunity to advance pro-growth policies that will spur job creation and mitigate the effects of costly regulations that unnecessarily burden manufacturers," said WDMA Chair Phil Donaldson, EVP & CFO of Andersen Corporation. "This agenda will guide policymakers to support policies that promote energy efficiency, eliminate unnecessary regulations, and ensure manufacturers are able to support economic growth for 2018 and beyond."
