Lobby Day in Sacramento

August 28 - 29, Sacramento.

Help Sierra Club California discuss priority environmental issues - such as land use, growth management, forestry, solar energy, clean air, and clean water - with our state legislators at the Capitol.

This is a great opportunity to protect the environment by influencing the political process and to practice your advocacy skills, as well as to meet new people with similar interests from around the state.

Training for Lobby Day will take place on Sunday afternoon, Aug. 28, in Sacramento. Sierra Club California's lobbyists will provide helpful tools and knowledge and will provide talking points on the priority bills that you will discuss. Monday participants will meet with legislators at the Capitol. The day will end with a wrap-up back at the Club office.

Sierra Club California will provide accommodations and meals. A portion of travel expenses may also be reimbursed.

The registration deadline for Lobby Day is Mon., Aug. 8, but please register as soon as possible, as we may receive more applications than we have space for; preference may be given to applicants from targeted districts. Early registration is also helpful as we make appointments with legislators.

Please contact Sabrina Juarez, Sierra Club California legislative aide, for more information at (916) 557-1100, ext. 107, or by email at Juarez-at-sierraclub-sac.org
