This year's event will be held in conjunction with the House of Delegates meeting and Annual Conference, providing a unique opportunity to have your voice heard by your legislators. At the event, participants will hear from decision makers on Capitol Hill, learn to effectively communicate with elected officials, receive an update on the legislative and regulatory issues of APTA, and lobby members of Congress on behalf of the profession.
