General Info

Along with PMA s interaction with state executive agencies and the Governor s office, the daily work of the association is centered on Pennsylvania s General Assembly, where the laws governing our commonwealth are written. PMA s team of government relations professionals monitors legislative activity, communicates with legislators and their staff members, and informs PMA members of developments as they happen. Learn what's new in state politics and legislation by checking out "What's Hot Under the Dome." We'll keep you up to speed on emerging topics and provide links to help you stay informed on the newest issues. Our Legislative Arena is the online extension of our traditional government relations efforts. Here you will find an electronic version of the PMA Legislative Directory, where PMA members can identify their state and federal legislators and read their biographies. The Legislative Directory also provides e-mail and website hotlinks for legislators, along with phone and fax numbers and traditional mailing addresses. As warranted, the association will issue Legislative Alerts to draw attention to urgent issues for manufacturers, who can then contact their legislators by e-mail directly from the PMA website. The Legislative Arena also features news updates, lists of important bills, and many other features to help our members communicate with their elected officials.
