SMACNA’s Government Affairs Team seeks real-world examples of the effect of current economic policy on your bottom line.
The construction industry is reacting to the significant impact of tariffs, averaging 25 percent or more, on steel, aluminum, and related items, all levied in the last few weeks. With contractors experiencing historic pricing on equipment and materials, SMACNA’s Government Affairs team would like to share real-world consequences with Members of Congress to advocate for relief and meaningful solutions. If your business has been affected by rising costs associated with tariff-related policies, we want to hear from you!
Email Stan Kolbe (skolbe@smacna.org) with your firsthand accounts of how tariff-related price increases are affecting your business.
