Thank you for registering for Latino Leaders Day on the Hill, hosted by the Center for Latino Leadership. We are excited to have you join us in Olympia on February 4, 2025, for this impactful day of advocacy, learning, and connection. To help you prepare, here’s a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Identify a Bill or Issue
Think about a topic or issue you’re passionate about. Use the legislative tool at app.leg.wa.gov/billinfo to search for keywords or topics to find relevant bills you’d like to discuss.
Step 2: Find Your Representatives
Determine who represents you in Washington’s legislature by visiting app.leg.wa.gov/districtfinder. This tool will direct you to your state representatives and senators, along with their contact information.
Step 3: Schedule Meetings
Reach out to your legislators as soon as possible to request a meeting during Legislative Day. If you need help crafting an email template or preparing your talking points, email Judith at Judith@centerforlatinoleaders.org.
