NJPSA Annual Legislative Conference

The Annual Legislative Conference is a special day for members to meet legislators and voice their opinions concerning legislation that affects education. Top leaders in our state and federal government join NJPSA members to discuss current issues affecting or schools, our state and school leaders. Our 2006 Legislative Conference focused on school construction and funding.

Federal Relations Conference and State Leaders Conference

Several times during the year, NJPSA sends a lobbying delegation to Washington, D.C. to advocate for our members and our students on federal education issues before the U.S. Congress. Federal funding, No Child Left Behind and the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilties Education Act are current priorities in our federal agenda. NJPSA works collectively with our national associations. We encourage our members to actively participate in the legislative process by staying abreast of the federal issues impacting your schools and professional lives and lobbying your congressional representatives!
