Federal Policy & Program Briefing

2008 Federal Policy & Program Briefing
October 19-20, 2008

Decisions made on Capitol Hill affect your plans for housing, infrastructure, open space preservation, transportation, and more.

Come to the 2008 Federal Policy & Program Briefing to find out what you can expect from Congress on these issues. And learn how the elections in November might affect your work next year.

The program will feature a special focus on infrastructure investment in America. Sessions will examine the upcoming surface transportation authorization and its connection to climate change, as well as state and local ballot issues, the impact of the foreclosure crisis on housing and community development programs, new directions in water legislation, and the farm bill.

After the briefing, attend Planners Day on Capitol Hill on October 21 to talk with legislators about policies that support good planning.
