Grassroots advocacy by NDA members can be crucial to ensuring that the industry’s priorities are reflected in legislation passed by Congress. Below you will find a complete list of resources that will help you engage and interact with your U.S. Senators and Representative.

Ways to Engage Your Congressional Lawmakers:

  1. Company Tour: Invite your Members of Congress to tour your business. Show them what your operation entails, how your company operates and what your employees do on a daily basis. Tours are a great way for lawmakers to meet you and your employees, hear about your company’s success and see first-hand how their votes impact your business.  
  2. District Office Meeting: Meet with your Members of Congress and their staff at district office so that you can discuss the legislative priorities with them face to face.
  3. Town Hall: Attend a town hall or other local event hosted by a Member of Congress. These meetings may not be heavily attended and is another way for you to speak with your elected officials.
