f you’d like to participate in Zoom advocacy sessions with the legislative assistants of elected officials, please contact Keith Sexton at ksexton@nccumc.org and he can send you the Zoom link. The more folks on the Zoom, the better. Some familiar faces from our book discussion group volunteered to speak about particular aspects of the Farm Bill and they have been practicing what they will say. You’ll want to tune in! Here are the upcoming Zoom meeting times:
Advocacy for the Farm Bill (via Zoom, contact ksexton@nccumc.org for the link)
Thursday, August 17 at 1:00 p.m. with Congresswoman Alma Adams
Thursday, August 24 at 10:00 a.m. with Congressman Don Davis
Tuesday, August 29 at 11:30 a.m. with Congressman David Rouzer
The more people who participate the better! (Most of us will have our cameras on and microphones off). We will listen to fellow United Methodists (from NCCUMC & WNCCUMC) who have volunteered to deliver their “elevator speeches” about various parts of the farm bill.
