NAFTZ members have an active voice in Washington through NAFTZ advocacy activities. Our Washington, DC headquarters puts us in close proximity to legislative and regulatory decisionmakers.
"They plead my case with Customs people. My voice can be heard.”
“Legislative representation is an important benefit. Most officials in DC do not understand the FTZ program. They hear the word “foreign” and see it as a negative. The NAFTZ educates lawmakers. It makes sure the FTZ program is as beneficial as possible, and that it stays around – and is not legislated out.”
“NAFTZ will be my eyes and ears in DC. I don’t have to run to DC to find out what’s going on that affects me.”
“It helps me when they [NAFTZ] can change something we are required to do. It prevents us from having to take unnecessary steps, saves us money and helps clarify things.”
