Legislative Education & Advocacy Day

Monday, April 30, 2012
10:00 am – 3:30 pm
Room 120 Legislative Office Building,
Empire State Plaza, Albany NY

Now is the time! Make your progressive religious voice heard.

• Stand up for Reproductive Health Care
• Speak out for Transgender Civil Rights
• Help Raise the Minimum Wage

 

 Reproductive justice is under attack nationally and in New York, basic civil rights are denied to transgendered persons, and the state minimum wage is stuck at an unlivable $7.25 an hour. You can make a difference and give IINYS a memorable presence in the Capitol.
     After an introduction to the issues and brief remarks by legislators, we will break up into small groups, each facilitated by an experienced advocate, and meet with your elected representatives, selected committee chairs, committee staff and program and counsel staff.  You will get a final schedule and folder of materials when you arrive in Rm. 120. Coffee and rolls will be provided. See www.interfaithimpactnys.org or call 518-441-3231 for more information.
