Advocacy
- As Chairman of the Natural Gas Vehicles for America (NGVAmerica) State Government Advocacy Committee for over 5 years, Sherrie Merrow has provided action-oriented leadership of more than 40 NGVAmerica member companies represented by over 80 advocacy people in support of natural gas vehicle (NGV) policy and incentives at the state level. Success is shown by the 29 states who now have NGV policy and incentives in place, with additional states added each year.

- Working with similar groups in New Mexico, Sherrie was able to lead the effort for a similar bill in the New Mexico Legislature in 2014 (HB 30).
