Why Join Us?
PLC Legislative Conference is a spring program dedicated to advocating for the public policy issues facing the public lands grazing industry. The policies and regulations being shaped by representatives and federal regulators everyday have a direct impact on the future of your operation and livestock grazing on public lands. The federal government is constantly developing new rules and laws that impact the way that we produce and manage livestock and the way that our businesses remain profitable.
This conference will provide an opportunity to hear from agency and Congressional leaders on high priority policy issues and current legislative discussions, as well as advocating those leaders through visits with your delegation and specific agency teams.
You won’t want to miss our rooftop views, inside access to D.C. leaders, great meals!
Our tentative agenda can be found here!
