Would you like to have input on proposed AAO actions and policies that will impact the future of the AAO and the specialty? All AAO members are invited to comment on resolutions that will be voted on by the 2025 House of Delegates, which will meet in conjunction with the 2025 Annual Session in Philadelphia.

AAO House of Delegates Reference Committees will hold hearings on Thursday, April 24, 2025, which members are invited to attend for the purpose of commenting on 2025 HOD resolutions. The Reference Committees will consider testimony from members while finalizing resolutions to put forward before the HOD for voting at its second meeting on April 27.

If you cannot attend a Reference Committee hearing, we invite you to review resolutions and post comments on any resolutions of interest. All comments on resolutions posted by noon CDT on April 22 will be considered as testimony by the HOD Reference Committees during their hearings on April 24.
