The most dynamic way to influence policy impacting community associations is to show up—CAI’s Government and Public Affairs team is inviting you to do just that at the CAI Congressional Advocacy Summit. Join CAI for the premier advocacy event for the community association industry. The summit is your chance to speak with federal lawmakers on Capitol Hill and staff face to face to help advance CAI’s public policy priorities. This event is being held on Thursday, Nov. 6th in Washington, D.C.
The event is a unique opportunity to:
- Engage directly with members of Congress and their staff.
- Educate federal decision-makers about the community association housing model and federal policies important to associations.
- Network with your fellow CAI members and industry leaders from dozens of states.
- Shape future policy for community associations through intentional dialogue.
Registration is FREE and includes:
- Pre-event policy briefing and advocacy training webinar
- Admission to catered breakfast briefing featuring expert presentations on a variety of critical topics influencing the community association industry. Network with peers and business partners
- Bus transportation from The Canopy Hilton – The Wharf to Capitol Hill
- Meetings scheduled with your members of Congress
- Guidance and support from CAI staff and federal consultants
- Bus transportation from Capitol Hill to a rooftop reception at the Cornerstone Lobbyist Headquarters
- Admission to a celebratory catered rooftop reception at the Cornerstone Lobbyist Headquarters
Your attendance provides meaningful value, including putting a face to the community association industry, building relationships with your respective state’s members of Congress, elevating the the industry’s profile, and showing in real time the commitment CAI’s members have to the community association industry.
All members are encouraged to consider attending this significant event, even if you have never met with an elected official before. CAI staff will schedule three meetings for you, each about 20-30 minutes: one with your representative, and one with each of your senators, to discuss the legislative priorities that affect your home and business. We will also ensure you are prepared for these meetings and understand the federal policy topics being discussed, as well as your role in the meetings, through meaningful pre-event briefings.
