Congressional Engagement Reception

Wednesday, September 2, 2026
5:00 PM - 8:00 PM (EDT)

Event Details

We are pleased to invite ACEC/NC members to one of our most valuable advocacy events of the year: the Congressional Engagement Reception in Washington, DC.

This exclusive gathering provides a unique opportunity to connect directly with North Carolina's congressional delegation, strengthen relationships with key decision-makers, and help elevate the voice of the engineering industry on issues that matter most to our profession.

To enhance the impact of our advocacy efforts and ensure continued support of ACEC's political engagement initiatives, attendance at the reception will require a minimum year-to-date contribution of $500* to the ACEC/PAC.

*To check your PAC totals please login to the ACEC PAC website. ACEC/NC staff does not report these numbers.

Please note the following updates for this year's event:

  • ACEC/NC will not provide group bus transportation to Washington, DC.
  • Attendees will be responsible for arranging their own travel and lodging.
  • A dedicated ACEC/NC hotel room block will be available, and attendees are encouraged to reserve accommodations within the block for convenience and networking opportunities. Room block information is provided in registration confirmation.

We believe these changes will allow us to continue offering a high-quality, impactful experience while strengthening our collective advocacy efforts. The NC Delegation Reception remains one of the premier opportunities for ACEC/NC members to engage with federal lawmakers in a meaningful and personal setting.

We look forward to welcoming you to Washington this September for an evening of valuable conversations, relationship-building, and advocacy on behalf of North Carolina's engineering community!
