2023-aia-small-bug-logo.pngMOAA’s flagship advocacy event, Advocacy in Action (AiA) 2025, wrapped up last week after delivering an impactful presence on Capitol Hill.  

 

More than 150 MOAA volunteers came together in the halls of Congress on April 9 to advocate for the service-earned pay and benefits relied upon by uniformed servicemembers, veterans, retirees, and their families. In a single day, our team of dedicated advocates met with lawmakers from all 50 states, visited over 325 congressional offices, and contributed a combined 1,200 hours of face-to-face advocacy.

These impressive numbers underscore one thing: When MOAA speaks, Congress listens. But our work doesn’t stop here.  

 

Our strength lies in our 350,000 members – and their families – across the country. Grassroots advocacy is key to the success of our message. Every voice matters, and yours can help reinforce the priorities delivered in person during Advocacy in Action.
