On Thursday, February 12, a team of members and staff from AIA Arizona visited the offices of the U.S. Representatives and Senators from our state for the AIA’s annual Hill Day. This included the presidents and presidents-elect of AIA Arizona, AIA Phoenix Metro, and AIA Southern Arizona, who took part in the AIA Leadership Summit that included Hill Day.
