At the conference, city officials take the opportunity to learn about federal issues important to America's cities and towns, to lobby Congress on those priorities, and to be a part of the unified voice we present to the Administration and Congress. The conference program include general sessions featuring national leaders, members of the Administration and Congress, workshops to learn more about key issues and NLC's federal policy positions, and a chance to flood Capitol Hill and forge a strong partnership with the Administration and Congress to advocate in favor of federal priorities for America's cities and towns. With economic recovery underway, but full recovery for cities is still a long way off, both the Administration and Congress will continue to have significant impact on the future of our communities. General Sessions are broadcast live and available to watch in the archives listed below. General conference questions |
