CCL Summer Conference & Lobby Day in Washington, D.C.

This year’s summer conference July 20 to 22 will not be livestreamed. Follow the event on social media!

Did you know, in-person meetings with elected officials are highly effective. All In Together notes that meeting with your elected officials offers several advantages:

  • Build Relationships: In-person meetings help build credible, long-lasting relationships with legislators and their staff.
  • Memorable Advocacy: Face-to-face interactions allow you to convey your message in a more nuanced and memorable way.
  • Deepened Engagement: You can invite others to join the cause, building broader community support.

Consider a combination summer vacation to Washington, D.C. where you can: 1) participate July 20 to 22 in our CCL conference, gain deep insights into current climate issues, and support our work in a genuinely impactful way; and 2) relax and enjoy the many interesting and enjoyable sites in Washington, D.C.

As noted on the conference website, you can expect:

  • A jam-packed event dedicated to building the skills you need for Lobby Day.
  • Insight into today’s climate landscape and key perspectives on where CCL fits in.
  • To be with the best people in the world, doing the best work, for the best cause.

The conference will be held at the historic Omni Shoreham Hotel. “The Shoreham hosted every presidential inaugural ball of the 20th century since President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and the Shoreham has also played host to a number of famous entertainers in the legendary Blue Room throughout its 90-year history.” The hotel is listed on the Historic Hotels of America website, as designated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

June 8-11, 2024

Conference speakers and sessions cover a broad range of topics. Among them are:

  • Near-term opportunities for climate policy in Congress.
  • Bridging partisan divides that keep us from acknowledging the scope of the problem.
  • Making climate change a top priority in every 2024 election.

Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, grassroots advocacy climate change organization focused on national policies to address the national and global climate crisis.

Our consistently respectful, nonpartisan approach to climate education is designed to create a broad, sustainable foundation to drive climate action across all geographic regions and political inclinations. By building upon shared values rather than partisan divides, and empowering our supporters to work in keeping with the concerns of their local communities, we work towards the adoption of fair, effective, and sustainable climate change solutions.
