So, details, details. Did you learn a lot about lobbying in the morning? Did you get to talk personally to any legislators? I am so jealous- let me live vicariously.  |
Yes, the morning was spent learning how to lobby and details about the bills we were discussing. Then we spent about an hour speaking face to face with 2 legislators who asked a lot of really tough questions but we ultimately convinced them to co-sponsor all 4 bills! It was exciting, exhausting and I loved every minute of it
