Government Relations

InfoComm conducts government relations activities on behalf of its members. InfoComm monitors legislation related to systems integration, green buildings and e-cycling. Legislative alerts are sent to members when critical action is needed in a particular state. InfoComm works cooperatively with BICSI, CEDIA, NBFAA, NSCA, and other groups serving industries representing companies operating in low voltage environments.

In addition, InfoComm works with the federal government on issues related to intellectual property, workforce development, white spaces and sustainable buildings. InfoComm is a member of the High Performance Building Congressional Caucus Coalition.

If you have questions about InfoComm’s government relations program, please contact legislation@infocomm.org.
