PLANET has long been known as "The Voice of the Green Industry." From participating in lawn care hearings in the early 1990s, to reaching millions with PLANET’s benefits of turf messages, to the recent H-2B legislation, the Association’s government affairs department continues to be a key resource for the Green Industry.
GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS
PLANET works at the federal, state and local levels of government to ensure the laws and regulations by which lawn care professionals must abide are reasonable and responsible, and do not unduly burden their member companies. PLANET is the only entity that represents the professional lawn care industry before the U.S. Congress and federal agencies, such as the EPA, Department of Labor, Department of Transportation and the Federal Trade Commission. PLANET monitors state legislation and provide updates on pertinent legislation to members. PLANET also helps members develop legislative strategies, talking points and issue position papers, and does face-to-face lobbying when requested.
