PMA is Your Voice in Washington, D.C.
PMA is actively lobbying Congress and the Administration for reforms that will help the metalforming industry compete globally.
In an effort to strengthen the industry's presence in Washington, D.C., PMA joined forces with the National Tooling & Machining Association (NTMA) to create “One Voice” for the metalworking industry. Under One Voice, our Washington, D.C.-based lobbying and strategic communications firms work every day to ensure that the industry's voice is heard on Capitol Hill and in the media.
One Voice has a combined total of roughly 3,000 member manufacturing companies and is designed to promote U.S. government policies that will ensure a strong manufacturing sector in the United States. The majority of member companies are family-owned small businesses, two-thirds of which are structured as a Sub-Chapter S Corporation or similar pass-through entity, paying taxes at individual rates.
