Lobbying Your Legislators Workshop for the Public!

The Delaware Coalition for Open Government, Greenwatch Institute and Delaware Sierra Club invite the public to a workshop on ways to be an effec­tive advocate in the General Assembly.
The workshop – free and open to the public – is 9:15-11 a.m. Wednesday, March 20, in the basement cafeteria of Legislative Hall in Dover.
Topics include lobbying techniques, methods and practical ways that citizens can impact the legislative process to advance their agendas in the General Assembly.
After the workshop, participants can attend committee hearings and a Gen­eral Assembly session.
A copy of the Lobby Handbook, compiled by the League of Women Voters of Delaware and printed with funds from the Delaware Commission for Women, will be available, along with tips on meeting with and writing to your elected officials, compiled by the ACLU.  http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20130311/NEWS02/130311007/Groups-advise-citizens-lobbying-lawmakers-
