I am pleased to invite you to address the attendees at our opening session on Sunday evening, November 12. Let me explain why this would be worth your time: You would be addressing an audience of 350+ people, including C-Suite executives from many Fortune-500 companies, some of which are either located in, or have presence in Oklahoma. We would provide an opportunity for you to meet separately with these attendees. Our manufacturing companies - which must have a manufacturing presence in the United States to be a member of our association -- represent the cutting edge of heating, cooling, commercial refrigeration, and water heating technology and are recognized around the world for the quality, energy efficient equipment they produce. Your presence at our meeting will amplify President Trump's promotion of U.S. manufacturing and its importance in job creation and economic growth. AHRI supports the future of the HVACR industry by investing in the training and success of future HVACR technicians and contractors through the Clifford H. "Ted" Rees, Jr. Scholarship Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable foundation of AHRI and the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). Since its founding in 2003, the Foundation has awarded more than $550,000 in scholarships to 330 deserving students, instructors, and returning veterans. Our member companies help keep Americans and people around the world healthy, comfortable, safe, and productive, in the most energy efficient, environmentally responsible way possible. Because AHRI and our members work closely with the EPA on such critical issues as refrigerant policy and ENERGY STAR, we would benefit from your intimate knowledge of the President's plans with respect to those issues as well as increasing U.S. manufacturing and creating jobs for our fellow citizens. 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523_00002167-00001 I would greatly appreciate it if you or your staff could respond with an indication of your availability. Feel free to contact me directly for any additional information you might need. I can be reached at syurek@ahrinet.org, or by telephone at 703-600-0314. Sincerely, Stephen R. Yurek President & CEO 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA ED_001523_00002167-00002
