Thank you for expressing an interest in USDA Rural Development's (RD) Implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Your input through our initial listening sessions has been valuable in the development of implementation plans.
Round Table Registration
Thirteen virtual roundtable discussions are planned for the following dates and times. In an effort to create a smaller setting for individual representatives to share their input, roundtables are organized by stakeholder groups, although all discussions will be open to any member of the public who expresses interest in joining, with the goal of being inclusive and hearing from all stakeholders wishing to provide further input.
You may register for one of the Round Tables by clicking on the Inflation Reduction Act Web Page. This will take you to the registration links.
