The GCA heads to Washington D.C. for the 42nd annual National Affairs & Legislation Conference. Join 300 delegates from the GCA member clubs across the country as GCA returns to our nation’s capital to take action to save our planet.

You can participate virtually and hear from nationally renowned experts addressing the urgent challenges we face, including climate and wildlife scientists and non-profit leaders, as well as policy makers and members of Congress. The need is urgent, and timely action is critical to limit the impacts of climate change.

The 2025 National Affairs & Legislation Conference will help all GCA club members understand the state of our environment, current research, and the escalating effects of the changing climate. Participants will learn how to advocate for clean air, clean water, clean energy, regenerative agriculture, land conservation, waterway restoration, our oceans, preservation of biodiversity, addressing petrochemical damage, and environmental justice.
