In-District meetings during the August Congressional Recess provide an opportunity for NAIFA's grassroots advocates to influence policy in a more casual setting than Washington, D.C. They allow us to build relationships with lawmakers and amplify our advocacy message. Our goal is for NAIFA members to schedule more than 300 meetings with lawmakers in their home districts during the August recess. As NAIFA leaders, please encourage the members in your state to cooperate.
