Before You Go

Confirm the date and time on the organizer’s page the week of the event. Legislative calendars and weather can move a rally.
Know the capitol rules. Carry, signage and security rules differ from state to state and building to building. Check the capitol police or legislature website before you travel.
Make an appointment. Lobby days work best when you schedule time with your own state representative and senator in advance.
Bring a short, clear message. Name the bill numbers that matter to you and how you want your legislator to vote.
Dress for a long day outdoors, plan parking early, and stay with your group.
