On 10 and 11 April 2024, IEEE-USA Congressional Visits Day (CVD) saw a total of 160 IEEE members — from across 32 states and 98 congressional districts — travel to Washington, D.C. Participants attended a total of 162 meetings with Senators and Representatives, a record high in CVD history, which has been held each year since 1998. Everyone is a VIP at CVD, but it’s worth noting that attendees included IEEE President Tom Coughlin, IEEE-USA President Keith Moore, IEEE President-Elect Kathleen Kramer, and IEEE-USA President-Elect Tim Lee, Region 6 Director Kathy Herring Hayashi, Region 5 Director Matt Francis, and many others. Sincere thanks to each and every participant for making this our biggest and most successful CVD yet!
