June is crunch time in the legislature, and it’s up to us to demand that our representatives put money behind the things we know are important\u2014including investments in housing security, healthcare, childcare, clean energy, and so much more.<\/p>\n

At 8:30 we’ll start with some training: we’ll learn about the policies, how to have good lobbying conversations, how to find our way around the state house complex, and who we need to talk to, and why. Then we’ll seek out our legislators to persuade and gather intel. We’ll debrief to share what we’ve learned.<\/p>\n

Around late morning (precise time TBD) we’ll rally to insist, LOUDLY, that our state government funds our future! More information to come.<\/p>\n

Lunch is provided. RSVP here!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
