Summer Advocacy Days

May 22, 2017Press Releasesasbpa_ed

Capitol Hill Day:

Wednesday, July 12th. Register here.

In District Day(s):

Wednesday, August 16th (or anytime during August Congressional recess). Register here.

This summer is the most important time in decades for the future of federal coastal funding. Coastal funding is facing unprecedented threats from the administration and Congress that is actively seeking to make major cuts to the federal budget. At the same time, tremendous opportunities exist for new potential funding for coastal infrastructure as part of infrastructure legislation and for new coastal revenue through a revenue sharing bill from existing offshore energy leases.

ASBPA members need to weigh in with their Member of Congress this summer to speak up for coastal funding. Will you join us?
