About ABMA: The American Building Materials Alliance (ABMA), established
in August 2021, is a committee of unified voices advocating on behalf of the
lumber and building materials (LBM) industry at the federal level. ABMA
currently represents LBM dealers and associated businesses in Alabama,
Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Vermont, and Washington, D.C. The mission of the ABMA is to advance,
shape, and influence policy in all branches of government. We work directly
with members of Congress, the White House, and federal agencies to impact the
legislative and regulatory process as it affects the LBM industry. ABMA is
powered by the Northeastern Retail Lumber Association (NRLA) and Construction
Suppliers Association (CSA).
