2026 Legislative Advocacy Fly-In Sign Up

Please join APTA on Wednesday, September 16, in Washington, DC, for a day of advocacy to advocate for public transit and passenger rail. Your voice is instrumental as Congress advances the next Surface Transportation Authorization Act, the FY 2027 THUD Appropriations Act, and other critical legislation.

The Fly-In is free to all APTA members and is financed by the APTA Business Member Activity Fund.

To match you with your Members of Congress, please fill out this form in its entirety to ensure the proper in-person meetings are scheduled on your behalf. APTA will schedule your meetings for you based on the information provided.

In addition to your primary place of business, please consider including locations where you conduct business or provide a service. For example, if you provide a service or supply a component outside your business address and in a different district, please consider including that location in the form below. Please include a description of the service to ensure we match you with the appropriate Member of Congress.

Congressional meetings will be scheduled to take place on Capitol Hill any time between 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. ET on September 16, 2026. Please plan to be in Washington, DC for a breakfast briefing and training, location to be announced, in the morning prior to your scheduled Congressional meetings.

A separate advocacy training and logistics webinar will be provided to registrants prior to the September 16 Fly-in.

If you have any questions, please email Jillian Kinder, Legislative Representative, APTA Government Affairs and Advocacy.
