We’re thrilled to announce the return of our New Liberal Action Summit, taking place October 20-21, 2025.
Amid a shifting political landscape and renewed debates over the future of the Democratic Party, NLAS 2025 will convene the next generation of center-left leaders to chart a winning path forward. Through policy, training, and coalition-building, this year’s summit will focus on rebuilding trust, expanding our appeal, and advancing liberal values in a post-2024 political era.
Travel + accommodation scholarships are available. We also have a booking link for our hotel block for all other out of town attendees.
Whether you are a longtime CNL member or just joining to us, this is your opportunity to join us in our movement to make liberalism win again.
Mark your calendars and stay tuned for speaker and agenda announcements!
