Annual Policy Agenda
Each fall, we collaborate with our Governmental Affairs Committee and Board of Directors to unveil a set of legislative priorities for the upcoming year. Seeking input from our member schools, we carefully consider their feedback on these priorities. With this valuable input, we put our agenda into action during the subsequent legislative session.
