Join the Chamber delegation in Washington, D.C. to voice your business needs, collaborate with the Coastal Bend's business leaders and meet with the nation's top legislators and policy officials. (Members Only Event)

Attendees will have the unique opportunity to:
  • Participate in high-level meetings with U.S. administration officials and agencies
  • Gain access to our country’s key decision makers and advocate for local and regional issues important to the Coastal Bend
  • Network and make invaluable connections with elected officials on the local, state and federal level, as well as other community members
When registering, please select your top two issue teams you’re most closely aligned with. We’ll do our best to place all delegates on a team within their top selections. The 2025 CB to DC issue teams are:

  • Maritime & Trade

  • Small Business

  • Natural Resources

  • Transportation

  • Workforce

  • Coastal Resiliency 

  • Military (must be an invested member of the South Texas Military Task Force)

  • Energy & Manufacturing

Please note: Registered delegates that want to participate on an issue team are required to attend at least two pre-trip briefings, which will take place monthly in advance of the trip. These briefings are critical to ensuring that all participants are well-prepared to advocate effectively on behalf of our region.

We look forward to bringing the united voice of the Coastal Bend to Capitol Hill — together!
