NEMRA Lighting Division

Strengthening Our Advocacy Efforts in Washington, D.C. Earlier this week, James Johnson, NEMRA President & SBLC Chairman, Jeffrey Bristol, Divisional Vice President of NEMRA Lighting and Jeff Casey, President of Casey Electric Sales Inc., along with other key members of the Small Business Legislative Council (SBLC), visited Washington, D.C., for the 2025 SBLC Fly-In. As champions of the ADVOCACY pillar, this group engaged in critical discussions with congressional and senate representatives, ensuring that our members' voices are heard at the highest levels. Their efforts focused on advancing policies that drive growth, innovation, and fairness—with a particular emphasis on small business tax legislation and tariffs. NEMRA & NEMRA Lighting remain committed to advocating for the interests of independent manufacturers' representatives, lighting agents and the broader small business community. Together, we’re shaping a stronger future. #NEMRA #SBLC #Advocacy #SmallBusiness #WashingtonDC
