    Join WASRG on Thursday, November 6 for our next Inside the Dome virtual event, where Arizona House Majority Leader Rep. Michael Carbone will join us to discuss the upcoming 2026 session in the Grand Canyon State.

    A FREE EVENT     |     WASRG MEMBERS ONLY

    The WASRG Inside the Dome series invites in-state contract lobbyists to share intel on legislative sessions, elections and political dynamics with WASRG members.



    ABOUT OUR SPEAKER

    Rep. Michael Carbone represents Arizona’s 25th Legislative District and serves as House Majority Leader. A U.S. Air Force veteran and small business owner, he was first elected to the legislature in 2022 and, since assuming a leadership role in January 2025, plays a central role in developing and advancing the House’s policy agenda.

    In the 2025 session, Rep. Carbone sponsored legislation related to energy, housing, employment, and election policy. His proposals have included measures to streamline permitting for small modular nuclear reactors near data centers, establish statewide standards for accessory dwelling units to expand housing options, and adjust unemployment benefits. He has also introduced legislation addressing health-care eligibility oversight and electioneering regulations, and has been active in discussions around state water policy and its impact on housing development.

    Join WASRG for our premier annual event, Inside the Dome IRL, bringing together top policymakers, advocates, and government affairs professionals for an afternoon of timely insights and unmatched networking.

    The Statehouse Forecast


    The afternoon's first panel, The Statehouse Forecast, features experienced state counsel from Florida, Maryland, New Jersey and North Carolina providing a candid look at what to expect in their 2026 state's legislative sessions. From election impacts and shifting political dynamics to  hot-button debates on tech, housing, labor and energy regulation, these insiders will break down the opportunities and challenges that will shape the year ahead.

    The Leadership Outlook


    Next, The Leadership Outlook features a bipartisan panel of state legislative chamber leaders offering a forward-looking conversation on their agendas for 2026. From budget and fiscal pressures to education and health policy, and the trickle-down impact of federal politics, attendees will hear first-hand how state leaders are preparing to tackle the toughest issues facing their states — and how stakeholders can engage effectively.


    Networking Opportunities

    In addition to these two dynamic panels, Inside the Dome IRL offers multiple opportunities to connect with government affairs colleagues and decision-makers throughout the day. Attendees can look forward to networking opportunities and an informal happy hour reception to close out the event.
