State Highway and Transportation Unions
Please Join us for the 23rd Annual NASHTU Conference!
.June 5-7, 2023, Washington, D.C.
The National Association of State Highway and Transportation Unions (NASHTU) is a respected, national voice dedicated to advancing the interests of transportation department workers throughout the country.

Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA), center, with members of the Professional Engineers in California Government at the 2022 NASHTU Conference.
The annual NASHTU Conference provides an important opportunity for transportation unions to come together and strategize how to best serve our members and deliver safe, cost-effective transportation projects for taxpayers. We are pleased to announce the 2023 NASHTU Conference will be held June 5-7, 2023, at the Hilton Capitol Hill Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD), right, with AFT’s Jennifer Porcari and Jerry Smith of the Maryland Professional Employees Council, Local 6197.
NASHTU’s federal legislative priorities include reducing wasteful outsourcing, public construction inspection on federally funded infrastructure projects, and increasing federal funding for transportation programs. NASHTU has won many important legislative victories by working together to stop wasteful outsourcing incentives in federal transportation authorizations and other transportation-related legislation.
The NASHTU Conference also provides important access to transportation leaders and key Members of Congress. Past conferences included the congressional leaders of both Senate and House committees with jurisdiction over transportation and infrastructure and key transportation and labor officials from AASHTO, Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO, FHWA, Center for American Progress, American Highway Users Alliance, Economic Policy Institute, and many other transportation stakeholder organizations.
