NPMA joined the Colorado Pest Control Association (CPCA) leaders for their annual advocacy day at the state capitol on Wednesday, February 5th. Alongside other applicator industries, CPCA members had the opportunity to share their real-world experiences with state legislators. Notably, this marks the first year that the pesticide preemption rollback bill has not been introduced, a clear sign of the lasting impact our continued advocacy has had on policymakers.
A big shout-out to the CPCA members in attendance, who handled tough questions with confidence and professionalism! Their commitment and passion to our industry and the work we do was on display the full day. View the full album online to relive the moment!
