With billions of dollars in property assets and hundreds of thousands of employees, AAHOA members are core economic contributors in virtually every community in the United States. As an association, AAHOA is a proud defender of free enterprise and the foremost current-day example of realizing the American Dream.

One month ago, hotel owners from across the country went to Washington, D.C., with one goal: To make their voices heard.

At AAHOA’s 2026 National Leadership & Advocacy Conference, Members spent two days tackling the issues shaping the future of hospitality, from leadership and policy discussions to hundreds of meetings on Capitol Hill.

They brought more than talking points. They brought their experiences, their businesses, and the real-world impact of policies affecting hotel owners every day.

From access to capital and franchise relationships to legal reform and credit card swipe fees, AAHOA Members made sure lawmakers heard directly from the people who power the hospitality industry.

But advocacy does not stop when we leave Capitol Hill.

One month later, the work continues. With the November elections just weeks away, make your voice count. Check your state's voting options, make a plan, and make sure you are ready to vote.

Fair competition and rate parity remain important issues for hotel owners.

AAHOA Secretary Dhiren Masters and Immediate Past Chairman Kamalesh (KP) Patel met with Rohit Chopra, Secretary of California’s new Business and Consumer Services Agency, to discuss rate parity and the competitive challenges hotel brands face when online travel agencies (OTAs) can offer discounts that brands cannot.

AAHOA continues to bring hotel owners’ perspectives to the table on issues that impact their businesses and the hospitality industry.
