Save the Date       2010 Lobby Day Registration Form

On May 24th 2010, the NAACP Branches will join the California NAACP's statewide membership for a powerful day of grassroots advocacy in Sacramento at the capitol. Community and youth leaders will travel to meet with the Governor and Members of the California Legislature. Our agenda will focus on informing lawmakers about our policy concerns on critical civil rights and social justice issues of the day. The lobby day will begin at 8 am and end at 6 pm.

The NAACP will provide free buses from your area and the return trip.  We need to have an accurate count of who will require transportation so that we have an ample number of buses for all branches in California. We plan to have buses leave Sunday evening so we can arrive in Sacramento early Monday morning, freshen up and be ready to meet the Governor and the legislators.  Logistics will be worked out once we have a final count on who is attending.  NAACP will provide a continental breakfast and lunch. 

The registration form is attached and should be faxed back to the CA NAACP State Conference as indicated on the form or returned to your branch. 

Lobby day is open to the NAACP membership and community members. Our youth are especially encouraged to attend. This is an excellent opportunity to participate in the democratic process. The NAACP will provide a brief training session, the talking points and issues of concern before we meet with the lawmakers. 

I look forward to seeing you on Lobby Day

Sincerely,

Ron Hasson

President – Beverly Hills/Hollywood NAACP
