Every year, CPAs come together to actively engage with Maryland legislators, advocating for our profession.
Join us as we proudly represent our profession and engage in direct conversations with legislators in Annapolis, fostering stronger relationships.
Attendees will have the opportunity to delve into the important issues we’re championing to create a positive impact on our profession.
Connect with state legislators in-person about issues affecting our profession.
Raising awareness of the legislative issues affecting our profession is essential. On CPA Day, we actively present our positions to legislators, ensuring they understand the challenges and priorities critical to CPAs. Explore the key issues we’re advocating for (and against), and verify your district to find your legislator.
