Abstract:
Larry J. Horner, the CVT Chair and recently retired Intel Principal Engineer, will be speaking about his recent participation in the IEEE-USA Congressional Visitation Day.
Larry was part of a nearly 300-person delegation that descended on Washington D.C., for two days in April 2025. The purpose of this ‘fly-in’ was to bring the voice of constituents to Capitol Hill. Larry led the Texas delegation of 40+ Subject Matter Experts in meetings with the offices of Senator Cruz and Senator Cornyn, then met with several legislative representative’s staff. Come learn about what IEEE-USA is, what was important to bring before Congress at the ‘fly-in’, why this is important to North Texas and our members and how all this comes together. Most importantly, come to network with your fellow CVT members before we take the summer break.
