NEW YORK — Roofing manufacturers joined a coalition of associations and businesses that recently sent letters to the White House, the House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee backing a proposal that supports homeowners and the home improvement industry.
As Congress considers a new round of economic recovery and stimulus measures to support Americans during the COVID-19 pandemic, the coalition, led by Standard Industries co-CEOs David Millstone and David Winter, is suggesting a proposal that contains two refundable credits. The credits are designed to deliver a direct financial benefit to middle-class homeowners and stimulate the demand for roofing contractors, plumbers, electricians and others.
