PACD Legislative Program

MAY

This month we will be focusing on the General Assembly's final days of their legislative session before the summer recess. It will be time to push the priority list we developed in January.

Suggested District Action: Personal meeting

A personal meeting at the legislator's district office on a Thursday or Friday (when they are back home), complete, with pictures for your newsletter, the legislator's newsletter, and a press release is helpful. If you have a number of legislators, you can either personally go to each individual legislator, or have a legislative meeting with them collectively. Although May is a busy month for farmers only one or two District staff and the same number of directors are needed for this meeting.

PACD Action: PACD will provide up-to-date information on legislative issues that were targeted in January. Also, we will provide districts with a short fact sheet on these issues that can be given to legislators. This information can be disseminated at your local legislative meetings.
