Government Affairs Committee

Advocating for Colorado's infrastructure and the civil engineering profession is a top priority for ASCE. We have the opportunity to engage in policy decisions at all levels of government and educate policymakers about the importance of infrastructure investment, as well as how civil engineers are protecting public health and safety. We are the experts when it comes to understanding the impacts of related policy decisions and it's our responsibility to be at the table when it comes to infrastructure and policy.
