We have a little over six weeks until the national election. While this year’s presidential race is particularly "colorful" and entertaining, we all know that local and state legislators can have an even greater impact on our daily lives. So while you are in the political mood, take a minute to join the Advocacy Team (or A-Team). And if you want to take your participation to the next level, consider being an Advocacy Captain for your Congressional District. You will be the "go-to" person on HR issues for lawmakers and their staffs. It is a very rewarding and exhilarating opportunity. Pam Bratton, Lon Williams and Kristin Bauer have done an excellent job as our Legislative Committee Co-Chairs, and will be happy to provide you with more information.
