Last week, the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Committee released its recommendations for the Farm Bill. The recommendations contain several points lobbied for by the Hardwood Federation (of which the National Wood Flooring Association is a part), including: incentivizing use of biomass residuals (wood chips) in renewable energy programs, the inclusion of forest products in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's biopreferred program, and continued funding for the Foreign market Development Program and Market Access Program.
To take action on this bill, the Hardwood Federation's website allows visitors to locate their elected officials here.
