JOIN THE ACTION IN WASHINGTON

Last year, the American Financial Services Association (AFSA) celebrated its centennial in Palm Beach, Fl. A year later, we reconvene in the heart of all the news coverage—Washington, D.C.

While AFSA's mission remains the same, the political landscape has completely changed. From the balance of the Supreme Court to the controlling party of both chambers of Congress and the White House. We'll be joined by leaders of Congress and key influencers in the consumer finance industry as we reflect on the past year in Washington and strategize for the future. 

In addition to various committee meetings and general sessions addressing key developments in the industry and political arena, this year's AFSA Annual Meeting will round out with Capitol Hill meetings with members of Congress. Use the insights gathered throughout the conference and take advantage of the opportunity to visit with your Congressional delegation. This is another #AFSAmtg you definitely don't want to miss!
