NAR Midyear Meetings Maryland SCHEDULED HILL VISITS with MARYLAND CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION, Wednesday Only, May 16th
As most of you know, a set timeframe is set aside for Hill Visits during the NAR Midyear Meeting which allows attendees to meet with their Members of Congress to discuss NAR federal issues. The timeframe is on Wednesday, May 16th, from Noon until 5:00, followed by an informal feedback reception for participants only.
Listed below are the respective meetings with the Maryland Congressional Delegation. Ideally, we always try to meet with our elected officials personally, however, oftentimes hearings/votes preempt their attendance. In those instances, the Member’s staff will still conduct the meeting.
Those interested in attending the Rep. Cummings/staff meeting, please meet at Noon at 2235 Rayburn House Office Building. OTHERWISE, meet up at the next meeting at 318 Cannon Office Building between 1 and 1:30 for the 1:30 meeting, giving ample time for Security processing. (Lunch/Transportation is “On Your Own,” however, there will be an informal Feedback Reception for Hill Visit Participants only immediately following the last meeting ; )!
Metro is the best way to get there…. http://www.wmata.com/rail/maps/map.cfm ! If you prefer, though, cabs are available from the Wardman. (Capitol Hill Map…http://www.aoc.gov/cc/cc_map.cfm)
Space is limited, so please RSVP to sheryl.bergman@mdrealtor.org if you’re planning to attend – feel free to join us for all meetings or just your Senators’ and Representative’s meetings.
Thanks for all of your advocacy efforts and we look forward to seeing you in DC!
