The US National Demolition Association (NDA) sent an updated industry priority letter to the White House and Congress as they continue to craft another Covid relief bill.

The House of Representatives previously passed a bill and the Senate currently has a working draft, which the NDA has reported on. Republicans and Democrats still need to reach an agreement, and NDA is lobbying the Senate for issues important to the demolition industry

NDA-backed priorities in the letter include:

  • Strong employer Covid-related liability protections;
  • A balanced and workable supplemental unemployment benefits policy;
  • Expanded access to Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funds;
  • Several comprehensive infrastructure proposals.

To support the NDA’s direct lobbying, members can go to the association’s Grassroots Action Centre and weigh in directly with their elected officials in just a few clicks.
