Capitol Connections is designed to educate members of Congress about the $1 trillion equipment leasing and finance industry’s role as a major source of capital and investment in the United States. While advocating for the industry on tax and financial services matters, ELFA members will push for bringing common sense to the small business lending market.

ELFA members will spend the day talking about the value equipment finance delivers to U.S. businesses of all sizes—nearly eight out of ten businesses lease or finance their equipment—and how the industry contributes to U.S. economic growth, manufacturing and jobs.

In addition to positively influencing federal policymakers who set the legislative and regulatory framework for the industry, attendees will hear from keynote speakers on a range of hot topics.
