Make your voice heard on Capitol Hill and learn about the latest federal policy issues that will impact your district
July 7-9, 2026
School system leaders and school business officials are critical leaders when it comes to federal education policy discussions. The Legislative Advocacy Conference, presented by AASA and ASBO International, is your opportunity to learn, share and represent your district.
Over the course of 3 days, you'll hear from education policy experts, key U.S. Department of Education staff and meet with your Senators and Representatives on Capitol Hill.
AASA and ASBO International’s advocacy teams will be on-hand to brief you on key priorities and pending legislation, and to help you prepare to meet effectively with your representatives.
