AAHOA Members and leaders from all over the country flew into Washington D.C. for AAHOA’s Fall National Advocacy Conference on Wednesday, September 14, 2022 to make their voices heard and shed light on the issues that matter most to America’s hotel owners. Some of those issues include:

• Promote access to capital by increasing SBA loan caps/limits and transparency
• Provide assistance with critical labor shortages: A new H2-C visa program and expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
• Ensure fairness in franchising with a private right of action to address wrongful and material disclosure violations
• Provide financial relief for hard-hit hoteliers: Forgive EIDLs, waive interest, and/or defer for an additional year

AAHOA Members understand that time spent in meetings throughout the Fall National Advocacy Conference carries immense value and weight. While Nothing happens overnight, it’s the discussions and relationship-building with our nation’s elected officials that bring attention to important issues.
