The Equality State Policy Center’s annual Citizen Lobbyist Training is this Friday, Jan. 30, at The Plains hotel in Cheyenne. This training teaches Wyomingites how to advocate for their interests at the Wyoming Legislature. Experienced lobbyists who work for ESPC member organizations outline the attributes of an effective lobbyist and teach attendees how to testify before a legislative committee. Other presentations outline how citizens can get the attention of legislators and affect their policy deliberations from home. Sitting legislators offer their perspectives on lobbying and discuss approaches that work – and that don’t work – with them. To register, visit equalitystate.nationbuilder/citizen_lobbyist_training. The cost of the training is $50 or $25 for ESPC members and includes lunch. Need-based scholarships are available for individuals, students, and non-profit organizations. See the attached document for more information.
