RHCA Legislative and Public Policy Committee, a standing body, acts as an advocacy group on public policy matters affecting the business and economic environment. This Committee offers a collaborative platform for educational and informational programs to keep members within the architecture, engineering, and construction sectors updated on local, state, and federal issues.

Committee Functions:

• Formulates positions on business and community issues based on their local impact. These positions reflect a consensus within the architecture, engineering, and construction business community rather than a unanimous agreement among all members.
  • Proposed policy statements can be submitted by any RHCA member, RHCA Committee, Board Director, or the RHCA CEO, with the preferred route being through an RHCA committee.
  • The Legislative Committee reviews these submissions and makes recommendations to the RHCA CEO.
  • The RHCA Executive Committee then considers these recommendations for inclusion on the RHCA Board’s meeting agenda.
• Facilitates sponsors and resources for Committee activities.
