The American Radon Policy Campaign (ARPC) was created in 2008 as a vehicle for asking the key federal agencies to provide leadership in protecting people from radon exposure. As concerns about federal radon policy gaps grew, it became apparent that AARST needed a formal presence in Washington to supplement efforts by AARST staff, board, members and allies. In 2013, the AARST Board authorized the Executive Director to hire lobbyist Randy Pence of Capitol Hill Associates and to fund the lobbying work with ARPC-100 Advertiser fees* from members who place ads in a special ARPC Advertising Publication. Each year ARPC funds cover the cost of Randy Pence’s lobbying work and travel expenses for key advocates to attend meetings in Washington DC.
Benefits to AARST members who contribute more as an ARPC-100 Advertiser:
· Get included in a special annual advertising supplement to AARST publications at the time of the Symposium
· Receive personal updates with report of progress made by your support.
· Play a major role in reducing radon risk in the US by helping AARST have a year-round voice in Washington, D.C.
*ARPC Advertising means you or your company dollars are a direct advertising expense
