AWEA Wind Power on Capitol Hill
July 09-10, 2013

Capitol Hill
Washington, DC
Join Gary Kanaby and others to meet with your congressmen and urge their support for the wind industry and jobs in their states. Even with a temporary extension on the PTC, we need a long term energy policy. AWEA does the hard work setting up this event and usually has someone to guide you and a small group to pre-arranged meetings. There are receptions, one of which is at AWEA headquarters where you can meet the AWEA staff.
