OFA CEO Michael Geary will join ANLA Executive Vice President Bob Dolibois, Vice President of Government Relations Craig Regelbrugge and Director of Research Marc Teffeau for the briefings. Kip Creel, president of StandPoint, will also present new research on what America’s population demographics mean to the future of the green industry and our prospects for economic recovery.

“The debt ceiling debate was just the beginning,” says ANLA President Bob Lyons of Ohio’s Sunleaf Nursery. “Tax increases and spending cuts will be hotly debated throughout the 2012 elections and beyond.”
