USINFI’s 2025 Advocacy Days will take place this March to connect with government officials to discuss important trade and government procurement textile issues with Congress and key executive branch policymakers. Exclusive to USINFI Division Members, this event is vital to influencing policy decisions around key issues that impact industrial textile manufacturers.
This year’s event will begin with an exclusive session on lobbying along with a deep-dive discussion of the issues with USINFI lobbyists the afternoon of March 4. Participants will be prepared as needed on how to connect with their representatives. Meetings will follow the next day, March 5. As in past years, we anticipate a combination of larger group meetings with committees of jurisdiction and meetings tailored to the companies participating to meet with their individual Congressional delegations and staff. s
