House Democrats will return to familiar confines for their annual policy retreat: The 2025 "issues conference" will return to the Lansdowne resort in Loudoun County, Virginia, on March 12 to 14. It’ll provide an opportunity for the party to come together and strategize on their message under President Donald Trump and their path back to the House majority. The Lansdowne is close to Washington, ensconced in a exurban area that has been trending Democrats' way. **House Republicans are holding their own retreat further away next week, Jan. 27 to 29, at Trump's golf club in Doral, Florida, near Miami.** [Source](https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2025/01/22/congress/house-dems-retreat-00199883)
