Do you pay more attention to a phone call, an e-mail, or a person standing in front of you? For most of us, a face-to-face meeting makes the biggest impact and thats why Environmental Lobby Day is one of the most effective ways you can stand up for the environment.
Join Washington Conservation Voters, dozens of the state's leading environmental groups, and hundreds of citizen advocates at the State Capitol on February 19th to meet face-to-face with your legislators and ask them to support the 2013 Environmental Priorities.
What: Environmental Lobby Day 2013
When: Tuesday, February 19 from 8:30 am - 4:00pm; Reception to follow
Where: United Churches of Olympia, 110 11th Ave SE, Olympia
Register online today!
During Lobby Day, you'll attend issue briefings, learn how to lobby, and meet with your three elected legislators.
You will be advocating for:
Clean Energy Solutions - By accelerating our clean energy transition, we can drive job growth and build healthier, more prosperous communities. And by sending less of our paychecks to oil and coal companies, we can keep those energy dollars circulating through our states economy.
Toxic-Free Kids and Families - This commonsense legislation will remove unnecessary flame retardants from children's products and furniture in our homes and preventing chemicals that threaten kids health from being used as replacements.
Conservation Works Lets put people in Washington back to work by committing funding in the capital budget to protect Puget Sound, reduce toxic runoff, expand recreation opportunities, and improve habitat and forest health.
Hope to see you in Olympia on February 19th - Register for Lobby Day today!
Thanks for all you do,
Shannon Murphy
Program Manager
