The Air Force Association maintains a day-to-day working relationship with the United States Congress, the Administration, the Department of Defense, numerous other government agencies, and the member organizations of The Military Coalition. Through these relationships, we represent and promote the interests of our membership, addressing issues across a broad spectrum of concern from quality of life to force modernization and research and development. AFA programs range from luncheon and dinner activities to symposia and legislative roundtables with Congressional leaders.
