ABOUT US

Launched in 2020, the Travel Management Coalition is an ad-hoc coalition of the nation’s leading travel management companies (TMCs) run by Washington, DC-based government and public affairs firm Monument Advocacy. Its purpose is to represent the unique interests of TMCs in Washington, DC, and ensure federal laws and regulations do not unfairly burden TMCs or restrict the ability of TMC customers to travel freely.   

The Coalition initially focused on securing COVID-era financial relief and advocating for the easing of travel bans. The focus then shifted to navigating proposed consumer protection regulations. As a result of the Coalition’s engagement and advocacy, the Department of Transportation agreed to exempt TMCs from airline consumer protection regulations aimed at the general traveling public.

To sustain long-term success in policy advocacy, the Coalition is focused on building stronger political support in Washington and in the communities where TMCs operate, expanding our footprint, and re-tooling our messaging.
