  • Who can be a member?
    To be a Member of Q Street, one must be employed as a federal lobbyist or public policy advocate who is committed to furthering the mission of the organization. We’ll double-check your eligibility when you register to join. Unfortunately, Government employees, congressional staff, and those not working in the field of public policy are not eligible for membership.
  • I’m not eligible to be a Q Street Member. Can I still join your list and attend your events?
    Absolutely! All are welcome to subscribe to our distribution list and attend our events. We take steps to ensure our events comply with House and Senate ethics restrictions; and if you work in the Executive Branch, we urge you to check with your agency’s ethics office for any restrictions that may apply.
  • Why be a Member? What does Q Street do?
    The chief benefit of membership in Q Street is an ever-growing network of friends and colleagues, whom you will meet and interact with in the context of fun, educational, and inspiring get-togethers. Our primary activity is hosting nearly 25 receptions, lunch discussions, and professional development events – serving a variety of purposes and subsets of members – every year. Also: Only Members may vote in our annual Board of Director elections and occasional advisory referenda on issues such as changes in our bylaws or new initiatives.
  • Are there Member dues?
    Q Street is generously supported by our sponsors so, fortunately, we do not require membership dues, and most of our events are free to all attendees. The chief exception is our monthly luncheon, which is $25 including tax and tip. If you are experiencing financial hardship, we offer a lunch scholarship.
