2023 Large Urban County Caucus Symposium
About the Large Urban County Caucus
America’s urban counties play a prominent role in 160 million residents’ lives every day. We foster conditions for economic strength, build and maintain transportation systems and critical infrastructure, promote community health and well-being, champion justice and public safety and implement a broad portfolio of federal, state and local programs.
The NACo Large Urban County Caucus is the premier forum for urban county leaders and is the voice for America’s metropolitan counties before Congress and the Administration.
