Building on six successful years of lobby days, the American Civil Liberties Union of Georgia (ACLU of GA) is again teaming up with other progressive organizations to help you meet and talk with your legislators.
Each week, we will provide you with the tools you need to hold lawmakers accountable on issues such as reproductive rights, free exercise of religion, immigrants' rights, and voting rights. We will provide training on how to communicate with legislators, update you on pending legislation, and explain why we care about these issues. We will then walk over to the Capitol and meet with legislators on priority legislation.
Your work is important to helping us understand legislators' concerns about the bills we support and oppose and how we can best plan to move forward on these issues. We hope to see you every Wednesday! Please also bring your friends!
