The Council is excited for our 2023 HUBZone Council Congressional Fly-In on Wednesday, June 21 in Washington, D.C. This all-day event will give Council members the opportunity to engage with agency and congressional officials on the importance of the HUBZone program and the need to increase contracts to HUBZone businesses. The Fly-In will begin by hearing from federal agency leaders who will deliver updates on forthcoming contracting initiatives important to HUBZone contractors. Following a catered lunch, we will head to Capitol Hill to meet with Members of Congress and their staff. This is the time for you to educate Members of Congress and their teams on the Council’s legislative priorities and how these changes impact your business. As a small business supporting the federal government, your voice is impactful and Members of Congress want to hear from you. We are excited to welcome our members to Washington, D.C. for this exciting opportunity.
