Counties are on the front lines of nearly every major federal issue, from health care and housing, to infrastructure, public safety and technology. The NACo 2026 Legislative Conference is where county leaders come together to make sure the county voice is heard in Washington.
By participating, you’ll engage directly with members of Congress, federal agencies and White House officials while building the skills and relationships needed to advance counties' 2026 federal policy priorities. From Capitol Hill meetings to issue-specific policy sessions, this is your opportunity to influence the decisions that shape our country’s future.
To help you make the most of your advocacy, NACo is also offering a pre-conference virtual Advocacy 101 session designed to prepare you for success on Capitol Hill.
