Description
Complimentary for All Members
As the Biden Administration solidifies its agenda and Democrats assume control of Congress, the Bay Area Council is ready to make our annual trip to D.C. – but we will be virtual this year!
Join the Bay Area Council from March 22-26 and hear from Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Alex Padilla and other top legislative and Biden Administration officials about their priorities over the coming months and opportunities for partnership on key issues.
WHEN: March 22 – 26, 2021
WHERE: Your home or office!
Participants will have the chance to speak directly with leaders during a series of 30-45 minute virtual meetings each day between 9-12pm Pacific Time. We are working to schedule 3-4 meetings per day, allowing you to conduct regular business, but still actively participate. You will be free to pick and choose which you attend.
