Join us in telling your legislators about the issues important to newspapers |
|
Take part in our Legislative Fly-In, March 8-9 |
To further our advocacy efforts, America’s Newspapers will host its first legislative fly-in in Washington, D.C., March 8 and 9. This is a coordinated effort to reach as many legislators as possible on Wednesday, March 9, and to promote the issues important to newspapers.
What’s the ask?
This legislative fly-in is a unique opportunity for our members to meet with their elected officials to (further) establish a relationship with them and to ask for their support of two key pieces of legislation.
Can I participate if I don’t go to D.C.?
Members who are unable to make the trip to Washington, D.C., in person can still participate. You can set an appointment to talk with your legislator on March 9 by phone or by Zoom, or any other day that week that they are available. Legislators are accustomed to meeting by phone and Zoom, so this can still be an effective way to communicate.
