Industry Partnerships

INDUSTRY PARTNERSHIPS

The NWFA partners with numerous industry organizations to expand its reach and strengthen our industry voice.

HARDWOOD FEDERATION

The Hardwood Federation (HF) coordinates industry policy positions to ensure a unified voice on legislation impacting hardwood businesses. The HF acts as the industry’s advocacy voice on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.

Each year, NWFA members participate in the Hardwood Federation Fly-In, an opportunity to address the many challenging issues our industry faces including environmental regulations, green building standards, immigration, tax reform, and more.

The Hardwood Federation PAC (Political Action Committee) offers a direct means to participate in shaping sound public policy and voicing views on issues related to the industry. The HFPAC also maximizes our ability as an industry to educate lawmakers in Washington on workable solutions to the problems we face every day.
