The Equipment Finance and Leasing Association will hold its Capitol Connections event May 17 through May 18 at the Washington Court Hotel in Washington, D.C.

The event is designed to gather equipment finance executives and educate members of Congress and select administration officials about the equipment finance industry’s role as a major source of capital and investment in the U.S. In addition, the program aims to positively influence federal policymakers who set the legislative and regulatory framework for the industry.

According to the ELFA, more than 120 ELFA members and 150 Senate and House of Representative offices and two executive branch agencies will meet.
