ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry and facility-solutions association, will host the Clean Advocacy Summit, the largest Capitol Hill fly-in event for the cleaning and facility-solutions industry, March 31-April 1, 2025, at the Royal Sonesta Washington, DC Capitol Hill hotel. In 2024, this event brought a record 120+ attendees from 32 states, who visited 133 congressional offices to advance the legislative priorities for the industry. “The 2025 Clean Advocacy Summit is a can’t-miss event if you want to help shape the future of the cleaning industry,” said ISSA Director of Government Affairs John Nothdurft. “Participation in the summit is critical for the cleaning industry to engage with a new administration and to build even stronger relationships with members of Congress no matter the outcome of the November elections.” On the first day of this signature advocacy event, attendees will receive the inside scoop on the public-policy priorities facing their business and the cleaning and facility-solutions industry, including labor and supply chain-related issues, promoting healthy workplaces, ending period poverty, and more. They also will get an insider perspective on the new administration and Congress, receive expert training on how to be an effective Advocate for Clean, and network with leaders from across the industry. On the second day, attendees will apply their new knowledge and skills by heading to Capitol Hill to meet with their congressional delegations to advance the industry. The 2025 ISSA Clean Advocacy Summit will take place at the conveniently-located Royal Sonesta Washington, DC Capitol Hill—less than one mile from the U.S. Capitol. Attendance will include 150 industry leaders representing a cross section of the cleaning and facility-solutions industry, from manufacturers to distributors to cleaning-service professionals. Tork, an Essity Brand will be the Presenting Sponsor again next year; Imperial Dade will be a Gold Sponsor of the 2025 summit.

I left feeling empowered and brimming with new ideas that continue to resonate with me.” John C. Banta, CIH IICRC Delegation “As a first-time attendee, I was nervous and excited. I was paired with some awesome individuals that made the experience more relaxing. The staffers we met with were very engaging. It was an overall nice experience that I would definitely do again.” Kareen Jones, Project Manager, Didlake “As a manufacturer, the ability to connect and advocate with and for our customers is invaluable. It opens insights on how our products are used and understood, as well as how we can leverage our position with legislators and regulatory agencies to help our downstream customers. It is a great event!” Rebecca Kaufold, Manager of Government Affairs & Sustainability, Spartan Chemical Company
