Grassroots Update: Getting the Ball Rolling

Eric Negomir, WHCA Government Relations Manager

Secure a facility tour with policymakers as soon as possible, so that they can take your perspective and needs with them into the Legislative Session when it begins on January 8. We know getting started can be the hardest part, so here are two steps you can take this week to get the ball rolling.

• First, find your legislators. If you need help identifying the best legislator for your building, please connect with Eric.
• Second, invite your legislator by email. This takes only a few minutes with our sample invitation letter – just plug in your information and hit send.

Follow the steps in WHCA’s handy toolkit to host an easy and effective legislator tour. If you have any questions, email or join Eric during his Open Office Hours from 11-12 on Tuesdays and 12:30-1:30 on Thursdays.
