"Considering that members of Congress make decisions that can have significant impact the cement industry, I (or Buzzi) find that events like the ACA Fly-In provide an opportunity to educate our elected officials on the important role of the cement industry in our economy and challenges we are facing, including CCUS Funding, Innovative Cements and Alternative Fuels use, to name a few.”
