What A Privilege To Be Part Of Something This Impactful

VLS was proud to sponsor the 2026 ACA Cement Fly-In in Washington, D.C., and attending this year reminded us why this event matters so much to our industry.

Our own Anna Jernigan was on Capitol Hill representing our VLS team, and by all accounts, the conversations with lawmakers and their staff were exactly the kind that move the needle — on infrastructure funding, alternative fuels, national security, and the permitting reforms our industry needs to grow.

A sincere thank you to the American Cement Association for the tremendous effort that goes into making this event happen year after year. Organizing an advocacy event of this scale — one that brings together manufacturers, policymakers, and industry partners — takes real dedication, and it shows.

We also want to extend a warm congratulations and welcome to Diane Tomb in her role as ACA's new CEO and President. Her leadership was evident throughout, and we look forward to what's ahead under her direction.

Events like the Fly-In are a reminder that meaningful policy change starts with showing up. VLS remains committed to supporting the cement industry and staying engaged on the issues that shape our nation's infrastructure for years to come.
