DESCRIPTION:Register now for the largest Capitol Hill fly-in event for the cleaning and facility solutions industries, the 2026 ISSA Clean Advocacy Summit!

That night the industry will come together to celebrate the accomplishments of recognized leaders at our inaugural International Cleaning Week Awards Dinner.\nOn the second day, attendees will apply their new knowledge and skills by heading to Capitol Hill to meet with their congressional delegation to advance the industry.\nWhy Attend?\n\nReceive policy briefings on the top public-policy issues facing your business and industry, such as labor shortages, supply-chain challenges, healthy-workplace incentives, ending period poverty, and more\n“Hike the Hill” to meet with your congressional offices and inform them how the cleaning and facility solutions industries strengthens America’s health and economy\nHear from special guest speakers and Washington insiders about the administration and Congress\nLearn how to be an effective advocate\nNetwork with cleaning and facility solutions industries leaders from around the country\nBe a leader and spokesperson for your industry\nMake your voice heard on the pressing legislative and regulatory issues impacting your business and industry\nCelebrate the industry’s accomplishments and recognize leaders at our inaugural 2026 International Cleaning Week Awards Dinner\n\nSchedule: \nSunday, March 22\n8:00 pm (Eastern)\nInformal Networking Meetup (Optional)\nRoyal Sonesta Hotel\nMonday, March 23\n11:00 am – 5:00 pm\nEducation, Keynotes, Training Sessions\nRoyal Sonesta Hotel\n6:00 pm – 9:00 pm\nInternational Cleaning Week Awards Reception and Dinner (Included)\nRoyal Sonesta Hotel\nTuesday, March 24\n8:00 am – 4:00 pm\nCongressional Meetings\nCapitol Hill\n4:00 pm – 6:00 pm \nClosing Reception\nRoyal Sonesta Hotel\n\nHike the Hill – Congressional Meetings\nOn Tuesday, March 24, participants will personally visit with their lawmakers and/or their staff on Capitol Hill.
