Water Resources Congressional Summit & WQA Fly-In

Washington D.C. | March 25 & 26, 2025

The Water Quality Association and the National Groundwater Association are hosting a two-day Water Resources Congressional Summit in Washington, D.C., to bring awareness to drinking water challenges and solutions across the country.

The event connects attendees with key decision-makers in Congressional offices, government agencies, and departments to foster better working relationships and understanding. The advocacy activities throughout the event embody WQA’s mission to be the “recognized resource and advocate for the betterment of water quality.”

The Summit:

  • Helps build connections with policymakers and provides important technical information to these officials to aid in decision-making,
  • Promotes support for our industry’s policy priorities, and
  • Reinforces WQA and its members as thought leaders on water quality challenges and solutions.

The complete 2025 schedule will be available soon. Meanwhile, you can see the 2024 Summit Schedule for an example of the first day’s activities.

Highlights from the 2024 Fly-In

In 2024, nearly 50 WQA members conducted 68 small-group Congressional Office meetings – 14 of them with a member of Congress – advocating for the drinking water treatment industry, educating lawmakers about the importance of water quality, and garnering support for the Healthy H2O Act.
