Why Attend?

Every year, ASTA members from across the country come together in Washington, D.C., to speak to their elected representatives about critical issues affecting the travel industry and their businesses. Lobbying is about relationship-building. Through the years, ASTA members have a lasting impact on building connections with your representatives on Capitol Hill.

Advocacy today is more critical than ever and we're taking you straight to the source at ASTA Legislative Day.
