ABA's Annual Fly-In
Each year, the American Beverage Association hosts a legislative 'Fly-In,' in which representatives from ABA member companies travel to Washington, D.C., for top-level meetings with an impressive group of policymakers. The Annual Fly-In is a critical opportunity for ABA members to speak directly to lawmakers and share industry's position on how federal policies will impact their businesses.
The 2010 ABA Fly-in took place on April 27-28 and provided ABA members with an opportunity to engage in legislative visits with senators, representatives and congressional staff. During the meetings on Capitol Hill, ABA members were able to update Members of Congress on relevant and timely issues, as well as our industry's leadership efforts on environment and health and wellness issues. Face-to-face meetings such as these provide an unparalleled chance to educate and inform lawmakers, and ABA's Annual Fly-In is fast becoming one of the best avenues for ensuring that the voices of America's non-alcoholic beverage industry are heard.
Stay tuned for information on the 2011 ABA Fly-in, which will once again take place next spring.
