Metalcasting needs you to advocate for the industry at the AFS Fly-In, May 15-16 in Washington, D.C.!
At the AFS Fly-In, you'll stand together as metalcasters to let your elected officials know the castings you produce are critical to the country’s defense, infrastructure, automotive, oil and gas, construction and other industrial sectors.
“We’re not just going to law makers and saying we wish this or can’t you do that,” said Brad Muller, AFS Board of Directors. “We back it up with the science and the technology and the feasibility of a lot of what they want to do.”
Along with other Washington insiders, you will hear from keynote speaker Mike Allen, a veteran D.C. journalist with an insider’s view on Washington. In his decades of experience, Allen was the chief White House correspondent for Politico, and is now the co-founder and executive editor of Axios.
The AFS Fly-In is one of the most important events for metalcasters to attend. It is your chance to keep the momentum going as we work to keep metalcasting front and center on Capitol Hill with key federal officials.
“We have both great challenges and opportunities before us,” said Mike Lenahan, Chair of AFS Government Affairs Committee. “We need you to help deliver our message. Please join us by making a difference for the industry we call our own.”
All metalcasting firms are encouraged to send at least one representative for two days of policy briefings and visits with elected officials, to stand together for pro-metalcasting public policies.
