United States Metric Association (USMA)

The United States Metric Association (USMA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the adoption and use of the metric system across the United States. It advocates for standardizing measurements to improve scientific, educational, and commercial practices. USMA works to educate the public, policymakers, and industry about the benefits of metrication, aiming for a transition that enhances consistency, international compatibility, and efficiency in everyday life and business. While the U.S. predominantly uses customary units, USMA supports a move toward metric measurement for its clarity and global compatibility.
