NiW Welcomes House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.-08)

May 1, 2024

NATCA was thrilled to welcome House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.-08) to #NATCAinWashington 2024. Jeffries spoke to the nearly 400 NATCA members, gathering in D.C. for a week of critical advocacy, letting our members hear from one of the leading voices in Congress.

Currently serving his sixth term, Jeffries holds the esteemed position of Democratic Leader, having been unanimously elected by his peers in November 2022. This makes him the highest-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives.

Jeffries's record of commitment to our Union and our legislative goals underscores the deep connection between NATCA's advocacy work and our broader national legislative agenda. His participation at the event not only energized our members but also reinforced the importance of our ongoing collaboration with key policymakers.
