Advocacy

The NABL Office of Governmental Affairs represents NABL before the federal government, tracks federal legislative and regulatory developments, works with other professional associations, and informs members through NABLNET Alerts and the Weekly Wrap.

The Office of Governmental Affairs works with the NABL leadership and committees to submit comment letters to federal agencies and to prepare position statements. Visit the RESEARCH section of the website to search for a particular comment letter or position statement.

If you have any questions or comments or need assistance finding a document, email or call Jessica Giroux, Director of Governmental Affairs.

You can find all of our advocacy tools below including one-pagers, official NABL statements for the record, letters to Congressional leadership, and more.
