Legislation Would Be First Federal Law to Address Metal Theft
CHANTILLY, Va. — The Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association is actively supporting bipartisan Senate legislation introduced by Sens. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to deter metal theft.
This multifaceted approach tracking valued construction materials aims to decrease metal theft, thereby protecting critical infrastructure, promoting public safety and saving money and valuable resources. It is likely that S 394 will be added to legislation expected to pass this session of Congress.
