OAIMA In Washington, DC

OAIMA members supported the NSSGA/NAPA/NRMCA Legislative Fly-In in our nation’s capital.  This yearly event is an important way to inform and educate our congressional representatives. 

This year’s agenda included highway funding reauthorization (due to expire in 2026), federal regulatory and permitting barriers and mine and work-zone safety.  Our members visited the offices of both Ohio U.S. Senators, and more than a dozen members of congress. 

By supporting events like this, OAIMA members ensure that our federal lawmakers consider their impact on the aggregates and construction industry when making legislative decisions.  Thank you to our OAIMA members for supporting this important, yearly event.  If you haven’t participated in this event, please consider joining us in 2026.
