NEW YORK – On October 23, 2013, the National Coffee Association of USA, Inc. (NCA) will bring the U.S. coffee industry to the halls of Congress – quite literally – and invites you to take part in this unique opportunity.
At its biennial Coffee on the Hill event, NCA engages Members of Congress to engender awareness of the industry’s scope and impact as well as legislative and regulatory concerns.
Legislators, federal agency officials, legislative staff members and other Beltway insiders will start their day on Capitol Hill interfacing with members of the U.S. coffee industry and enjoying some of some of the best coffees from around the world.
This format creates a compelling and memorable setting for achieving attention for the industry and its needs with the lawmakers who impact key policy and legislative decisions.
