The organization formerly known as Association of Government Accountants held a hybrid training conference in DC this week. Some of the speakers focused on equity, equality, etc. I don't think it was a total coincidence that the conference was hosted in DC instead of VA.

((The conference unveiled the new slogan "Advance Grow Acceleration", attempting to be a bigger tent covering all the greater government financial management community instead of implying it included just government accountants.))
