AMAC Action Delegates Meet With 24 Congressional Offices in Successful D.C. Fly-In

On May 21, AMAC Action brought conservative grassroots advocacy directly to the nation’s capital as six teams of delegates, along with AMAC Action staff, held 24 strategic meetings with Members of Congress and key staffers during our latest fly-in to Washington, D.C.

In a powerful show of civic engagement, AMAC Action delegates carried the voices of our more than 2 million members directly into the halls of power, ensuring that their concerns are not just heard, but acted upon at the highest levels of government.

Throughout the day, delegates met with prominent offices, including Speaker Mike Johnson’s staff and Senate Republican Majority Leader John Thune’s team. In a notable highlight, delegates also toured the White House and met with members of President Donald Trump’s staff – reinforcing AMAC Action’s close collaboration with senior leaders in the administration working to advance conservative priorities and traditional American values.

Delegates specifically urged lawmakers to back the “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” a comprehensive bill that includes:

• Lower taxes on Social Security benefits
• Extension of the 2017 Trump Tax Cuts
• No tax on tips or overtime
• Border Wall construction to address the crisis at our southern border
• Funding to hire more border patrol agents and speed up deportations
• $150 billion in additional military funding
• Medicare Part D reform, particularly targeting pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) abuses

That legislation ultimately passed the House just hours after the Delegate Fly-In concluded. Over just a 72-hour period from Monday through Wednesday, AMAC members mobilized to send more than 14,400 messages to the U.S. House urging passage of the bill, almost certainly playing a role in the legislation’s final passage.

In addition, AMAC Action Delegates urged members of Congress and the Trump administration to pursue measures to ensure the long-term solvency of Social Security, particularly by tackling fraud, waste, and abuse identified in oversight findings from the Department of Government Ethics (DOGE). Delegates also advocated for the full repeal of the Death Tax and the permanent extension of small business tax relief – critical issues for America’s job creators and family-owned businesses.

One of the most important goals of the day was to secure original co-sponsors for the Helping Everyone Access Long Term Healthcare (HEALTH) Act, a vital piece of legislation that would expand access to quality care for Medicaid and CHIP-eligible patients while reducing the overall burden on Medicaid spending.

“By bringing these priorities straight to lawmakers’ offices, AMAC Action ensures that our members are not just spectators in the political process – they’re participants,” said Andy Mangione, Senior Vice President of AMAC Action. “From Social Security reform to healthcare access, AMAC members are leading the charge for a more accountable, pro-senior government. This fly-in was about amplifying their voices and holding Washington to the promises made to America’s seniors.”

The fly-in concluded with a well-attended Capitol Hill reception, where delegates and allies heard from two champions of election integrity: Cleta Mitchell, founder of the Election Integrity Network and Senior Legal Fellow at the Conservative Partnership Institute, and Jason Snead, Executive Director of the Honest Elections Project. In recognition of her tireless work safeguarding the democratic process, AMAC Action proudly presented Cleta Mitchell with the American PATRIOT Award.

From the first meeting to the final reception, the Delegate Fly-In was a resounding success, proving once again that when AMAC members mobilize, Washington listens.
