What is Lobbying “Telling your elected representatives about your needs and then motivating them to help you satisfy those needs through the enactment of legislation” (Guyer, 2013).

Visiting a Legislator Express appreciation to the lawmaker and staff on behalf of constituents Deliver brief presentation in 10 minute or less Leave a one-page summary sheet and any supporting documents Follow up with a written thank you letter to the lawmaker Offer to send additional information

Things to Avoid Do not give legislators special gifts Do not offer campaign contributions Do not offer political support Do not be disappointed if you have to meet with the legislator’s staff rather than the legislator. Treat staff with the same level of respect.

Summary “The best time to lobby is when you don’t need anything” (Guyer, 2013).
