Getting in front of our elected officials – MAKING OUR VOICES HEARD!
While the intent of Lobby day this year was to get the attention of our elected officials, the intent of our regional lobbying ‘weeks of action’ is to actually meet with our elected officials in person.
At these ‘regional’ meetings, TSEU members be able to be in front of (via zoom) local elected officials from their own area’s house and senate districts. In order to allow more members to participate, meetings have been scheduled over lunch hours and after 5:00pm. You can join fellow members for as many meetings as you are able during the week at any of the meeting times.
As the Lobby Week of Action gets closer, we will send out notices to allow you to register in advance for these meetings. You can also RSVP by email to the organizer contact listed (use ‘Lobby Week of Action’ as the subject line).
REGIONAL Lobbying ‘Weeks of Action’ schedule/contact:
During the week of action, lobby appointments will be set up with area Reps and Senators via Zoom meetings. These meeting will occur at: 12:00noon, 12:30pm, 5:00pm, 5:30pm, and 6:00pm. Please attend as many meetings as you are able. It’s important that our elected officials get a chance to hear directly from those on the front lines and whose lives and jobs could be changed for the better (or worse) with the legislation they pass.
