Public Policy Discourse

We belong to a variety of industry associations and public policy organizations that participate in the public debate about issues that are of interest to us.

To advocate our positions, we rely primarily on Weyerhaeuser managers and subject-matter experts who are assisted by internal public affairs and federal affairs professionals. They follow both the letter and the spirit of the laws governing lobbying, with managers receiving regular training on current law and practices. In all lobbying efforts, we strive to work fairly and honestly with public officials at all levels.
