CIMA's Chris Hoch (L) at White House

Cellulose Insulation Manufacturers Association President Chris Hoch was a featured speaker at the White House this month. The first-ever Weatherization Supply Chain event was held June 15 as a forum to discuss the Department of Energy’s Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP.)

The WAP is an important governmental program that creates jobs, save energy, reduces energy costs for low-income families and stimulates advancements in energy technology.

It is important to keep the Weatherization Assistance Program funded. CIMA encourages everyone interested in creating jobs and saving energy to support the renewal of the WAP.
