Sustainable Building

Products/Trade Names
National Lumber and Building Material Dealers Association (NLBMDA) represents your interest on Capitol Hill. A portion of your membership dues is sent to NLBMDA to oversee the regulatory issues and Legislative priorities that affect your business.

Currently, NLBMDA is seeking support for the Innocent Sellers Fairness Act that would, in short, provide that sellers/retailers do not take on liability for a product merely by selling that product and that if sellers are negligent with respect to certain, specific non-sale activities; they will be responsible for the harm that their negligence causes.

Go to www.buildthevote.org and take action for NLBMDA's Innocent Sellers Fairness Act. Go to NLBMDA's web site, www.dealer.org, for the other issues that they are covering.
