Dear LWV-WV Members,
The LWV-WV is excited to join with other organizations and individuals
committed to moving West Virginia forward as a supporting partner of the
2018 All Kinds Are Welcome Here Civil Liberties Lobby Day [1] on
February 8 at the State Capitol in Charleston.
COME STAND WITH US IN SOLIDARITY TO SHOW THE WEST VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE
THAT WEST VIRGINIA SHOULD BE A PLACE THAT WELCOMES AND RESPECTS ALL
PEOPLE!
There will be an advocacy training starting at 9 am to make sure you are
comfortable talking with your elected officials about issues that matter
to you, followed by a large press conference and rally featuring our
lawmakers and other members of the community. Following the press
conference, attendees will watch a floor session from the House or
Senate galleries at 11 am when legislators convene.
The afternoon is devoted to meeting with your elected officials.
Attendees are encouraged to arrange their own meetings with their
legislators, but there will be a table were folks can connect with other
from there area to attend meetings as a group. If you plan to attend and
need help arranging a meeting with your legislators please let me know
by replying to this email.
Please register here [2] to let us know which parts of the day you'll be
attending, and which issues matter the most to you.
We look forward to seeing you there. Please stop by our table in the
lower rotunda.
ALL KINDS ARE WELCOME AND ALL VOICES MUST BE HEARD! PLEASE JOIN US AND
INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TODAY.
Sincerely,
Julie Archer
Director, LWV-WV
