MBA Advocacy Month

Join us in September for MBA Advocacy Month, a campaign dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of making an impact and influencing positive policy outcomes on a national level. During this month we will be working with MBA member companies to activate their employees and run MAA and MORPAC campaigns to increase our political footprint. In addition, we will work cross-departmentally among MBA staff to host (virtual) events, including a legislative townhall to connect with and remind our members that MBA is YOUR resource. If interested in learning more and how to get involved, please contact Jamey Lynch, AMP or call 202-557-2818.
