ACC Legislative Conference 2024 – Registration Now Open

Registration for ACC Legislative Conference 2024, taking place from Sept. 29 – Oct. 1 in Washington, DC, is now open! This signature three-day event offers cardiovascular clinicians spanning the entire care team a chance to hear from ACC leaders, staff and other experts on health policy issues affecting patients and the profession. It also provides an important opportunity to speak directly with members of Congress and their staff on the final day of the meeting.

This year’s conference will include educational sessions that provide insights into the federal government’s approach to addressing and regulating artificial intelligence as well as in-depth discussions about this year’s talking points. Additionally, member-driven sessions will focus on developing advocacy programs in local communities to equip attendees with the tools and knowledge to sustain advocacy efforts beyond the conference.
