2008 Agenda
Austin Resources
  • One of Netroots Nation's goals is to facilitate in-person interaction between our political leaders and the progressive community.

    So we're thrilled to announce that Speaker Nancy Pelosi will join us in Austin for a Saturday morning keynote session: "Ask the Speaker."

    This won't just be any keynote. Speaker Pelosi wants to hear from you. Instead of simply giving a speech at a podium, the Speaker will be taking your questions and interacting with convention attendees.

  • Back in January, we asked you to help us organize sessions that accurately reflect the issues that are most important to you, and you answered en masse. Now, we're asking that you tell us what you think on a more regular basis.

    Because Netroots Nation is a physical embodiment of the progressive world, we want to ensure that all communities are represented and all voices are heard. To help us achieve that transparency, we've teamed up with a smart new company called Get Satisfaction. With a motto of "people-powered customer service," what company is better suited to help us reach that goal?

  • Back in January, we asked you to help us organize sessions that accurately reflect the issues that are most important to you, and you answered en masse. We received more than 140 submissions on topics ranging from the environment to Iraq.

    After several months of tweaking the schedule, combining ideas in order to create the most well-rounded agenda possible and mixing Netroots experts with fresh, new voices, we’re thrilled to announce that our convention schedule is now live.

    Our online agenda is fully searchable by topic and speaker, and you can view by day or by subject. We urge you to use it as a resource for planning your convention schedule.
