Water utility leaders attending AMWA’s 2019 Water Policy Conference in Washington, D.C. April 7-10 will benefit from the insights of one of the nation’s top political analysts. Amy Walter, National Editor of the non-partisan Cook Political Report, is scheduled to lead off the conference program. Walter also makes weekly appearances on the popular “Politics Monday” segment on the PBS NewsHour and is a regular Sunday panelist on NBC’s Meet the Press and CBS’s Face the Nation. The former political director of ABC News, Walter can be seen frequently on Special Report with Bret Baier on FOX.
The conference agenda will also feature top federal officials who will provide news of developments on a host of water issues. Key policy leaders have been invited from EPA, the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the Bureau of Reclamation. Specialists on cybersecurity, climate programs, WIFIA, and lead service lines will have the opportunity to provide updates.
From the U.S. Congress, legislative professionals with water interests and portfolios will be on hand to share their views on the national legislative agenda for infrastructure, sustainability, regulatory oversight, and other issues of concern to drinking water utilities.
