I DON’T SAY “GOOD JOB” TOO
OFTEN, but good job this year
getting the word out about the
specific federal issues that affect
us all in our industry. Also, the
daily calls for action [PPAI’s
L.E.A.D. Virtual Fly-In] were
well done. In only a few minutes,
we were able to participate and
show our congressmen the issues
important to lots of their con-
stituents.

SEEING AN ARTICLE IN ASI’s
Promogram on PPAI’s L.E.A.D.
made me reflect on changes in
the industry over the past few
years. I feel that both organiza-
tions are more interested in mov-
ing forward than rehashing past
events. And we’re focused on pos-
itive energy and activity, not the
negatives of either group. It feels
good, and it’s better for everyone.

“The daily calls for action were well
done. In only a few minutes, we
were able to participate and show
our congressmen the issues impor-
tant to lots of their constituents.”
PPAI took the industry’s message to Capitol Hill May 25-26 for the seventh
annual Legislative Education and Action Day (L.E.A.D.). More than 80 mem-
ber volunteers and staff took part, holding nearly 250 visits with legislators and
their aides from 30 states to discuss the industry’s interests, while members partic-
ipating through the virtual fly-in contributed nearly 1,000 emails to their legis-
lators to voice their concerns.
