April 13, 2005 from 10 a.m.–3 p.m. at Missouri’s State Capitol in House Hearing Room 2
Let your elected officials know about issues of importance to you.
The Sierra Club is sponsoring its annual Lobby Day. With a new Governor and a new Director at the Department of Natural Resources, it is more important than ever to demonstrate strong support for environmental protection. The best way to do this is by turning out a large group at Lobby Day. Several of our environmental and conservation group allies will co-sponsor the event so we are expecting a large turn out. Showing elected officials you care enough to make the trip to our state Capitol speaks volumes.
This is an excellent opportunity to stop and visit with the new Governor and your elected officials to discuss the importance of environmental protection and conservation for Missouri. There are several critical issues and programs working their way through the legislative process. The timing of our Conservation Lobby Day should fall at a time when serious conservation and environmental legislation will be at critical junctures. Please plan to attend and bring a friend. We will have informational speakers and detailed handouts to provide background materials for lobbying. It is a great chance to get involved in the issues that matter to you and meet new friends in the process. We always try to pair first time lobby day attendees with an old pro. Plan on attending and help us protect Missouri’s environment.
More details on speakers to be announced. For more information call the Sierra club office at 1(800) 628-5333 or email us at ozark.chapter@sierraclub.org
