AIM Act

The Alliance supports the Senate bill S. 2754, The American Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 2019.  The Alliance joins numerous industry trade associations along with companies large and small who back the proposed law. This coalition recognizes that swift passage of the legislation would provide much needed policy certainty for American companies in a rapidly advancing and highly competitive global market for next generation fluorocarbon technologies.  For years, the focus for a global hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) phasedown has represented a compelling, nonpartisan issue that can be solved by this common-sense legislation. Beyond the environmental benefits,passage of the AIM Act is projected to create upwards of 33,000 new U.S. manufacturing jobs, adding to a sector that is responsible for over 600,000 workers, provides annual sales upwards of $205 billion and contributes more than $600 billion annually in output in the U.S. economy.  The growing list of co-sponsors includes:
