Business and civic leaders from across Oklahoma will travel to Washington, D.C., this spring for the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber’s annual DC Visit, held in partnership with the Tulsa Regional Chamber. The joint trip marks a significant collaboration between the state’s two largest chambers, underscoring a shared commitment to advancing Oklahoma’s federal priorities and strengthening the state’s voice on Capitol Hill. The DC Visit provides an opportunity for delegation members to engage directly with Oklahoma’s congressional delegation, federal agency officials and national policy leaders on issues critical to the state’s economic growth and competitiveness. Key topics will include infrastructure investment, workforce development, defense and aerospace, energy policy and business climate initiatives that impact Oklahoma communities. By joining forces, the Oklahoma City and Tulsa chambers aim to present a unified, statewide perspective on federal policy. Chamber leaders say the collaboration reflects the increasing importance of regional alignment in securing resources, influencing legislation and positioning Oklahoma for long-term success. Throughout the visit, attendees will participate in policy briefings, agency meetings, and networking events designed to foster dialogue and build relationships. The agenda also includes discussions with national experts and industry leaders to provide insight into the federal landscape and emerging economic trends. In addition to advocacy, the trip serves as a leadership development and relationship-building opportunity for business executives and community partners. Participants gain firsthand exposure to the policymaking process while strengthening connections with peers from across the state. Chamber officials note that coordinated advocacy efforts like the joint DC Visit help elevate Oklahoma’s priorities at the national level. By aligning messages and leveraging collective influence, the partnership enhances the state’s ability to compete for federal funding, attract investment and support policies that drive economic prosperity. The 2026 DC Visit represents a new chapter in chamber collaboration — one rooted in partnership, shared priorities and a unified vision for Oklahoma’s future.
