Lobbying Your Legislators 101

6:30 pm to 8:00 pm

Only one third of Americans contact their elected representatives each year, and far fewer of those attend in-person lobbying meetings. Let's get that number up! If you've ever wondered how to: set up a meeting with your legislator (or a staffer), what to bring, what makes an effective meeting, and how to get those talking points right, this is the training for you. Champion Beyond Coal Campaign legislative team leaders Sarah Smiley and Jake Shimkus will lead this highly interactive workshop and skillshare. 

Although it will focus on environmental issues and the current New York Offshore Wind campaign, the skills learned will be relevant for many other issues. Light snacks will be provided.
