Priority One-pagers
To share how glass is an adaptable, sustainable, energy-efficient, strong, beautiful, safe, and essential building product, NGA developed handouts on priorities, in an easy one-pager format for legislators and stakeholders. NGA task groups are meeting to refine the one-pagers with specific requests to support current pending legislation related to each priority topic. At the event, NGA volunteers and staff will meet in organized small groups with members of Congress.
