(L-R Jeff Johnston, Senator Cantwell, Richard Miller) |
Much to my dismay, I was unable to attend our recent State
Convention. Jeff Johnston and I instead
made the trek to Washington DC for the Congressional Conference; NAIFA
National’s super-sized version of Day on the Hill. I must admit that I didn’t have the best
attitude prior to the trip. I was
grousing about missing the State Convention and grumbling about the gridlock in
the other Washington, and wondering out loud to anyone within earshot, whether
we would have any impact.
Well as things often play out, I received a loud and clear
message. We started out the day with
just one appointment at Senator Cantwell’s office. With some last minute calling and a little
help from Kyle Kunkler at the National headquarters, we managed to set up 2
additional appointments with Senator Murray’s office and 8th congressional
district Congressman Dave Reichert. Not
only were we happy to be using our time in Washington DC wisely, but all of our
appointments were with key legislators; those who sit on committees that
directly impact our industry.
