We still have a few seats available for this class. If you'd like to
attend, please respond to [email protected]. Feel free to also pass this along to others you feel might be interested. There is no cost and it is open to the public, although SAFR members will get priority. We will be holding this program in Lansing on Wednesday, January 20th. The program will take a good portion of the day and has to be done during a weekday due to legislative schedules. Our goal is to introduce the average gun owner in ways to more effectively lobby for gun rights. We'll cover both visits to your legislator and testifying on proposed bills. The program will start at 9:00 in the Library Room, across from the Capitol. Guest speaker will be Joel Sheltrown, the Chair of the House Committe on Outdoor and Recreation. Tentative Schedule as follows: 9:00 - 10:00 - Introduction to Legislative Action. 10:0 - 11:00 - Legislator's discussion - Joel Sheltrown 11:00 - 12:00 - Tour of Senate and House Buildings. 12:00 - 1:00 - Lunch (Provide your own or we can order in.) 1:00 - 2:30 - Depending on legislative schedule, either committee hearing or legislative session..odds are that any bills being heard that day will not be firearms-related but the process is the same. 2:30 - 4:00 - Individual visits with legislators, with some of the more experienced folks being able to go with those who are unsure of themselves. We ask people to call their own legislators or staffers to set up meetings prior to the date of the training. 4:00 - 4:30 Meet back at the conference room for end of day round up, questions, comments, feedback, etc. Space is limited so please respond to [email protected] |
