RIA’s Advocacy and Government Affairs (AGA) Committee Efforts and Webinar Recording

RIA’s Advocacy and Government Affairs (AGA) Committee is the restoration industry’s first unified advocacy team. It seeks to unite the restoration industry and advocate for the best interests of restoration contractors nationwide, and develop and implement strategies to help create and maintain equity between restorers and insurers and their partners.

The AGA Committee will advocate for the financial and legal interests of restoration contractors, while working collaboratively and fairly with insurers and the other stakeholders involved in the restoration process.

If you missed the RIA Town Hall Q&A webinar you can visit the RIA webinar to access the recording. Stream the RIA Town Hall Q&A webinar on the RIA website to hear Ed Cross, Esq. and Mark Springer, CR, revisit our discussion from the RIA Town Hall at the 2019 International Restoration Convention+ Industry Expo.

Learn more about the committee’s progress and learning to the recording at www.restorationindustry.org/RIAAdvocacyandGovernmentAffairs.
