As an elected or appointed municipal official, you can advocate for your municipality by joining the League’s Lobby Team.  

Capitol Lobby Days are held three to four times during the Legislature's two-year legislative session. On Lobby Day, League staff brief the Lobby Team prior to Capitol meetings and provide memos on League priorities. (If travel costs are a barrier, reference the League's mileage and hotel reimbursement policy below.) 

As part of the team, you'll also be invited to participate in behind the scenes interactive political briefings provided by webinar.
