Help Congress Make Good Choices! Attend the NAA Capitol Conference!

Help Congress make good choices while you learn more about advocacy at the 2014 NAA Capitol Conference. If you don’t educate Congress on what to do when addressing issues impacting the apartment industry, they might make the wrong choice. And although you may know a lot about advocacy, the NAA Capitol Conference can help you learn even more.

The schedule is packed with educational sessions, expert speakers on policy and politics, a briefing on the issues and a new lunchtime event with members of Congress on Lobby Day. 

And for the first time, the schedule has been compacted to allow you to only attend what you want — only NAA governance activities, only advocacy activities  or only the issues briefing and Lobby Day — but don’t let that stop you from attending all of them! This is a big change from previous years that should save time and money for conference participants. 

The Capitol Conference will be held on March 11 in Washington, D.C., followed by Lobby Day on Capitol Hill on March 12. (The spring Board of Directors and committee meetings precede the conference on March 9 and 10.)

Former U.S. Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) will provide a candid look on politics, the economy and the hard choices that America’s leaders face during the keynote luncheon on March 11. His address is entitled "The Moment of Truth: Confronting Issues in America." Known for his quick wit, Simpson addresses controversial topics on the national agenda with honesty and provides sensible solutions for moving the country forward. 

Conference kick-off speakers will be Charlie Cook, editor and publisher of The Cook Political Report and a political analyst for the National Journal Group, and Stuart Rothenberg, editor and publisher of the Rothenberg Political Report and columnist for Roll Call.

The Capitol Conference will prepare you to carry your message on our major industry issues as an informed, effective, confident advocate. Registration is free until Feb. 14. After Feb. 14, registration will be $50.
