Preservation Month Congressional Briefing

Preservation Action is excited to host the Historic Preservation Month Congressional Briefing on May 13th at 12pm. The briefing will be held in 2168 Rayburn House Office Building (the Gold Room).

Every year, coinciding with National Historic Preservation Month in May, Preservation Action hosts the Preservation Month Congressional Briefing. We work closely with the Historic Preservation Congressional Caucus and leading national historic preservation organizations to help educate congressional staff on federal preservation program and key legislative issues impacting historic preservation.

This year will be joined by the National Conference of State Historic Preservation OfficersNational Association of Tribal Historic Preservation OfficersNational Trust for Historic PreservationNational Trust Community Investment Corporation, and PlaceEconomics.

Help us spread the word! If you have a personal contact in your Representative or Senators’ office, contact that person directly, share our briefing flyer, and ask them to attend the Preservation Month Congressional Briefing on May 13th. If you need any help finding staff contacts, feel free to reach out to Rob Naylor at Preservation Action (rnaylor@preservationaction.org). We’ve also put together sample invite below:
