<p>On December 19, key hardwood industry champions, Reps. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) and Annie Kuster (D-NH) introduced the bipartisan Hardwood Access and Program Development Act  (H.R. 6880), a bipartisan, hardwood industry-specific bill that will promote consumer education about the sustainability, low carbon footprint, domestic production and rural economic impacts of U.S. made hardwood products. As Congress will increasingly focus on election season as we get into 2024, it's important that we round up as many cosponsors as soon as possible to move this important bill.  By completing the form on the right, send a letter today and tell your House lawmaker to co-sponsor this important bill for the industry!&nbsp;</p>


New Hardwood Access Bill Supports Industry 

On behalf of the hardwood industry, please sign onto H.R. 6880, the Hardwood Access and Development Program Act, as a cosponsor.  This important, bipartisan bill will raise awareness about the benefits of hardwood products in a sector that supports more than 1.8 million jobs in all 50 states.    

By way of background, the hardwood sector is a fully integrated industry from logging to the manufacture of finished consumer goods such as flooring, cabinets, furniture and moldings in our homes. The sector is not only the source of high-quality jobs, but it also delivers sustainable goods to the marketplace that store vast amounts of carbon, thereby achieving environmental goals.
