Lobbying & Advocacy: How to Share Your Voice Post-IRA Passage

Contractor voices were critical to the passage of the home energy rebate programs in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Our direct engagement with policymakers through Virtual Lobby Days led by E4TheFuture and the Building Performance Association helped us shape the IRA to support the home performance industry – including the only dedicated workforce development dollars included in the entire package. Advocacy does not have to be a time-consuming endeavor to be impactful - there are meaningful ways of ensuring that your voice is heard without taking significant time away from your business. This session will discuss ways the home performance community continues to mobilize and will explore additional ways you can help advance the home performance industry.


Learning Objectives:

* Learn how policy directly affects the home performance industry and shapes the environment in which you do business

* Understand the different policies our policy experts fight for and fight against, and how your voice can help achieve success

* Learn how you can engage in the policy making process and make a meaningful difference in shaping the policies that affect the home performance industry
