Follow-up from yesterday's Virtual Lobby Day for a Healthy Democracy
Yesterday's Virtual Lobby Day for a Healthy Democracy was a big success, despite so many weather-related challenges. We had over 70 participants, had some good legislative meetings, a lobby training, social media training, letter to the editor training, spokesperson training, generated tons of calls to the legislative message line and good outreach through social media, and had a fantastic virtual rally with powerful stories in the afternoon.
Join us for a Virtual Lobby Day for a Healthy Democracy Thursday!
We need to build a strong, healthy Democracy in Kentucky if we’re going to ever build
