AAMA alerts members to make their position known on cap and trade

Pointing to the Web site of the Environmental Defense Fund, which includes lists of companies that the group suggests would benefit from passage of cap and trade legislation, the American Architectural Manufacturers Association sent out an alert to members last week urgingthem to make their positions on the legislation known to their representatives.

The Web site includes state maps that "tell the story of companies across the manufacturing heartland that will get new customers and create jobs with a cap on carbon." The maps highlight companies, including many AAMA members, and assumes their support of H.B. 2454, the cap-and-trade bill which passed the House, because they produce Energy Star-rated products, according to a July 13 Window & Door report.
