Thank you for being a part of this effort to share our community’s vision with our nation’s leaders. We started the annual Fly-In more than three decades ago, and in that time, our Fly-In has become one of the nation’s oldest and largest annual regional trips to the nation’s capital. It is vital in helping the federal government understand the needs of our local community. We often talk about collaboration at the DDC, and we take great pride in how business, government, academia, and the non-profit sector come together to support our region and “speak with one voice.” We see the Fly-In as this collaborative idea come to life. When 150 community leaders converge on Washington, it sends a powerful message. As you know, the Fly-In is more than just a show of support for the community’s interests. We believe the Fly-In offers attendees an opportunity to learn more about Washington. The annual Capitol Hill reception on Wednesday, April 3rd is a chance to mingle with members of the delegation and their staffs, as well as other government officials and business leaders with an interest in Ohio. Our sessions this year include presentations from the House and Senate Congressional delegation representing the Dayton Region on Thursday morning, April 4th. On Thursday afternoon, attendees can choose from a discussion of business issues with the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, an update on the proposed Dayton Veterans Affairs History Center, or overview of federal health care issues facing Congress and the Administration. Attendees can also choose to get an insider’s perspective of the Library of Congress or take the afternoon off and network with DC contacts. On Friday morning, April 5th, Marti Taylor, President & CEO of OneFifteen, will present this new non- profit’s ecosystem dedicated to the full and sustained recovery of people living with opioid addiction. OneFifteen was established in Dayton in February 2019 to deploy a tech-enabled system of care that includes a behavioral health treatment center, rehabilitation housing and wrap-around services. Friday’s scheduled keynote is U.S. Air Force Under Secretary Matthew Donovan. The main focus of the trip remains supporting the Dayton Region’s federal installations, which include Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Springfield Air National Guard Base and the Dayton Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Together, these installations have a combined annual economic impact on our area of more than $16 billion. As in past years, other important federal issues include transportation and infrastructure, health, human services, education, and quality of life. We encourage you to ask questions, dig deeper into the issues that matter to you, and share your vision for Dayton. I look forward to seeing you in Washington. All my best, Jeffrey C.

News of Coast Guard Vice Commandant Adm. Charles Ray testing positive, which came after he attended a Sept. 27 White House event, broke after Ray had met with several other senior leaders at the Pentagon last week. The Defense Department has since raced to conduct contact tracing, highlighting the stark difference between the Pentagon and White House, where administration officials have been reluctant to reveal key timeline details after President Trump and top aides tested positive. “Simply because it is such a threat to readiness and can disable a ship, a building, a base, they take this very seriously,” Steve Morrison, a public health expert with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said of the Pentagon’s response. “It didn’t seem they were looking to be micromanaged by anyone, they sort of kicked in to gear,” he added.
