Come to Sacramento to lobby for the environment


Sierra Club California invites you to Sacramento for our annual Lobby Day on Monday, August 25th. This is your chance to meet with legislators to advocate for current environmental issues on behalf of Sierra Club.

Lobby Day provides activists with an opportunity to talk with legislators and their staff about the Sierra Club’s statewide priorities and specific legislation that is pending before the Senate and Assembly. Lobby Day brings Sierra Club’s grassroots power to the State Capitol and allows legislators to see the faces behind one of California’s most influential environmental advocacy organizations.

The Club will conduct a training session in political effectiveness the day before Lobby Day, on the afternoon of Sunday, August 24th. Through discussion, role-play and some real-life examples, we will instruct you on how to make the most of your time with an elected official and how to use lobbying to help achieve the goals of a larger campaign. The training will give you the skills to become an effective lobbyist with elected officials both in Sacramento and at home.

This year, we anticipate our topics to include electronic waste disposal, forest protection, land use and air quality.

Sierra Club California will provide dinner Sunday, August 24th, as well as breakfast on Monday. Accommodations will be arranged and participants will be reimbursed up to $100 for travel expenses. For more details, please contact Marianne Batchelder, (916) 557-1100 x107 or Pat Veesart, (916) 557-1100 x103.
