The annual SA to DC trip is underway in Washington, D.C. this morning. If you’re not familiar with this trip, it is essentially “San Antonio Week” at the U.S. Capitol. More than 120 representatives of the San Antonio business and government communities converge on the nation’s capital to advocate for issues important to San Antonio.
After breakfast and several guest speakers – beginning with Washington Post National Political Correspondent Karen Tumulty – we break up into 11 issue teams and fan out across Capitol Hill for dozens of meetings with members of Congress and their staffs. Here’s a breakdown of the teams and their agendas:
- Aerospace
- Education
- Healthcare & Bioscience
- Immigration
- Information Technology & Cyber
- International Trade
- Military
- Small Business
- Transportation
- Urban Development
- Water
I’ll spend time with several different teams, provide updates on the meetings, and video interviews throughout the next three days. Please add Communi-K to your favorites, follow us on Twitter. Please check back in when you have a chance.
