Colorado Lieutenant Governor Joe Rodgers will be the special guest at this year's national convention fund-raising reception sponsored by ArchiPAC, the AIA's political action committee. AIA Government Affairs invites one and all to come show support for ArchiPAC and meet Rodgers on Friday, May 18, 6:30–7:30 p.m. at the Denver Hyatt Regency.

Rodgers was sworn into office in 1999 at age 34, the youngest U.S. lieutenant governor. His experience includes a decade of legal practice in his native Denver, during which he devoted a quarter of his time to community service. He also served as staff counsel to former U.S. Senator Hank Brown (R-Colo.), advising on business, agriculture, banking, telecommunications, economic development, transportation, housing, and the judiciary.

Plan to meet Rodgers at the ArchiPAC reception, and encourage your friends, colleagues, members of your firm, members of your component, your state delegation, and others in leadership positions to join you. The requested contribution is $50; which will be accepted at the door.
