Environmental Lobby Day featured:

  • Informational tables from RI environmental groups.
  • Brief review of key legislative issues.
  • Overview of Lobbying 101 at the State House.
  • A chance to meet your State Legislators to express your concerns re: priorities such as Carbon Pricing, Wetlands Protection and more.
  • And, you are welcome to speak on behalf of your own priorities, too!

If you are unfamiliar with the ways of the State House, this is a good way to learn what is going on and get a bit more familiar while working with friends and allies.

Our experienced hands can help you find your legislators and learn your way around.

Show our legislators that environmental issues matter to you!
