ASA is an organization of state lieutenant governors, governor appointed delegates, state legislators, territorial and tribal government representatives and associate members from aerospace businesses, organizations, and academia. ASA brings together aviation and aerospace interests across each state to educate state legislators on issues specific to their state and provide networking opportunities to grow jobs and expand economic development. As leaders in our state, tribe, and territory governments, ASA members not only impact policy at their levels of government, but also on the national level, by informing our congressional delegations on aerospace priorities.
-Josh Tenorio, Lt. Governor, Guam, ASA National Chair
Conference attendees will tour key aerospace and research assets shaping the region. Highlights include visits to Spaceport America, the nation’s first purpose-built commercial spaceport; New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, a leading institution in science and engineering education; and Sandia National Laboratories, a premier federal research and development facility supporting national security, energy, and advanced technology innovation.
Policy panel discussions will explore a range of critical aerospace issues impacting States, Tribes, and Territories. This year’s topics include spaceports, higher education and workforce development, the future of national defense, tax and infrastructure policy, and the growing value of state and regional space commissions—along with additional emerging priorities shaping the aerospace landscape.
Networking opportunities will provide a dynamic forum for attendees to connect with state, tribal, and territorial leaders, industry executives, researchers, and federal partners driving the aerospace sector forward. These engagements foster meaningful collaboration, spark new partnerships, and create pathways for investment and innovation.
