NRMLA Committees



NRMLA’s leadership has updated our committee structure to be able to respond more effectively to the growing number of issues being addressed by the association, and create more opportunities for members to become actively involved.

There are currently 10 Subcommittees that fall under the jurisdiction of either the Government Affairs Committee or Industry Affairs Committee. There is also a Standards & Ethics Committee.

Following is contact information for the Committee and Subcommittee leadership:
