Join us for the 2025 WineAmerica Congressional Fly-In

May 6-7th in Washington, DC

WineAmerica comes to Washington, DC for our annual Congressional Fly-In on May 6-7. We invite all members to share two days of learning, advocacy and networking. This is your best opportunity to make your voice heard in Washington by meeting with your Senators and Representatives, with meetings arranged in advance by WineAmerica staff.

The two-day agenda will include brief business meetings, but will mostly involve a group visit to the Tax and Trade Bureau, followed by personal visits to members of Congress. Attendees will receive a pre-briefing on all the issues, and be given documents to share with legislative staff. There will also be a festive wine dinner for all attendees and other networking opportunities.

Issues will include:
  • General Political Environment
  • US Dietary Guidelines
  • Tariffs and Trade Policy
  • Farm Bill
  • Tax Policy
  • TTB Rulemaking
  • And More
