INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, has announced the third annual INDA Advocacy and Fly-In Summit, co-hosted with ISSA, the Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association’s Clean Advocacy Summit. The joint event will take place on March 23–24, 2026, at the Royal Sonesta Washington, D.C. Capitol Hill, located just steps from the U.S. Capitol and Congressional office buildings.
The 2026 summit will bring together leaders from INDA, ISSA, IICRC, and WSA for two days of high-level discussions, advocacy training, and direct engagement with policymakers.
The first day will feature advocacy training sessions, policy briefings, and nonwovens-specific breakout discussions to prepare INDA members to effectively communicate the industry’s key priorities to lawmakers and regulators.
On day two, INDA members will take part in the signature “Hike the Hill” activity, meeting face-to-face with congressional offices to address critical legislative, trade, and regulatory issues impacting the nonwovens industry’s future.
“With so much uncertainty happening on Capitol Hill, it has never been more important for INDA members to have their voices heard,” said Tony Fragnito, INDA President. “The 2026 Advocacy and Fly-In Summit gives our members a unique opportunity to engage directly with policymakers on the issues that matter most — from the WIPPES Act and tariffs to PFAS and extended producer responsibility proposals. By participating, INDA members help ensure the nonwovens industry’s perspective is represented in the decisions that will shape our future.”
