VPPPA Government Affairs

The VPPPA Government Affairs Department strives to keep our members updated on legislative and regulatory developments that affect the VPP community. These include members-only benefits such as contributions to The Leader, the association’s quarterly magazine, and Washington Update, a monthly e-newsletter dedicated to news from OSHA and Capitol Hill.

Upon request, the association provides expertise in the form of comments and stakeholder feedback on rulemakings and policies, as well as comments and testimony regarding legislation impacting worker health and safety and the environment.

With legislation before Congress that will help protect the future of VPP, VPPPA’s Government Affairs Department is eager to assist the association’s membership and the VPP community at large with any questions or concerns they might have at this important time in the program’s history.
