(Virtual) Congressional Conference 2021: Its Happening!

By Bianca Alonso NAIFA-Texas Government Relations Manager on 3/31/21 5:40 PM

NAIFA recently announced that Congressional Conference 2021 will be happening virtually this year! This event is an amazing tradition that has engaged our members for as long as anyone can remember. Last year, of course, Congressional Conference was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, out of an abundance of caution, NAIFA members in Texas and across the country will have the convenience of participating from the comfort of their home or office! We can still make an impact virtually. We did so for our virtual Day at the Capitol 2021 😁
