Powering Strong Communities

Legislative Rally Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsor the Legislative Rally to connect with 700+ public power CEOs, policy makers, senior executives, and government relations professionals.

What is the American Public Power Association (APPA)?

APPA is the voice of not-for-profit, community-owned utilities that power 2,000 towns and cities nationwide. We represent public power before the federal government to protect the interests of the more than 54 million customers that public power utilities serve, and the 96,000 people they employ. APPA advocates and advises on electricity policy, technology, trends, training, and operations. Our members strengthen their communities by providing superior service, engaging citizens, and instilling pride in community-owned power.

What is the Legislative Rally?

This event brings utility executives, policy experts, and locally elected and appointed officials to Washington, DC, to communicate public power’s value, benefits, and needs to Congressional representatives. Please note: Due to the sensitive nature of the discussions at the Rally, investor-owned utilities may not sponsor or attend.

Why should my company sponsor and exhibit at this event?

As a sponsor, you’ll have access to and visibility with key public power decision-makers and decision-influencers. You’ll enjoy many valuable branding and networking opportunities and have many opportunities to spread the word about your products and services.

Corporate associate membership distinguishes your company as a lead supporter of public power and provides tangible benefits that get your name in front of decision-makers at the nation’s community-owned electric utilities. APPA offers two levels – standard and Elite – to fit your needs and budget. Both options provide your employees with significant benefits, but with an Elite membership you enjoy extensive branding and networking opportunities.
