Committees
Members help to shape the direction and decisions that often determine industry positions before regulators and policymakers through participation in ACA Committees. ACA’s Committees — classified as issue management and industry sector — offer members a seat at the proverbial table and bring company representatives together as a formidable voice for industry. While companies can “go-it-alone,” ACA is both recognized and respected in the United States and internationally as the preeminent industry organization and being part of that body strengthens industry’s voice and stature.
