The Rhode Island legislative committee is comprised of 9 members from Rhode Island Lumber and Building Materials Association. They work with our state lobbyist, Terrance “Terry” Martiesian, to advocate for and work against issues in the state legislature on behalf of the lumber and building materials industry. They engage members through action alerts, where members are asked to contact their state legislators on a specific issue or piece of legislation, and through a state lobby day usually held in May.
