RSVP MYCC "Climate HW Due" Youth Lobby Week - 1/24/22 - 1/26/22
For 10 months--while we lobbied, testified, and rallied--the many Climate Justice bills that youth have helped write and advocated for have sat unmoving in their Committees. But on February 2nd where the MA House of Representatives climate homework comes due. Called Joint Rule 10 Day, committees must vote for which bills ought to pass from their committees and continue on the path to law. We must remind them to vote favorably and transparently on the bills we are focusing on which are highlighted on MYCC policy priorities here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ht8w_Duxo39ET6eRAHsq0kGRf6zQCNXS5JBGU1zX5qo/edit# 

Can we count on you at this crucial moment of our campaign? Join the Massachusetts Youth Climate Coalition for our "Climate HW Due" Youth Lobby Week!

The event will consist of a series of online zoom meetings, including trainings on Monday Jan 24 afternoon and  legislator meetings throughout the rest of week according to legislator and student availability. (Students and teachers can anticipate missing between 1-2hrs of schools, one for meeting with Senators and one for meeting with Representatives.)

More scheduling details will be forthcoming. In the meantime, complete this form to sign up and help us connect you with your legislator and other youth in their district! Direct any questions to Our Climate Field Representative Suhaila Cotton: sucotton9@gmail.com.

Though this is a youth (<24yo) centered event, we welcome support from adult allies. If you're willing to take on supportive roles in our meetings or for the event, please RSVP. Please also consider signing up for our adult-led coalition partners Mass Power Forward for their Lobby day on Jan 27th.

Are there any other legislators with whom you should meet?
Do you have any relationships with additional legislators or districts that might also make you a persuasive lobbyist? Or are you open to playing a supportive role in other constituents meetings?
Do you have any interest in taking leadership roles beyond just attending the event? If so, check any roles you might want to take on.
Are there any specific times from Jan 24-Jan 26 that you know you absolutely CAN'T attend a call?
Keep in mind: Our preparatory training program happens on the afternoon and evening of Monday. Your meeting facilitators will then find meeting times on the Tuesday and Wednesday that work for you and your legislators. Legislators tend to work between 9AM-5PM, so focus on scheduling restrictions in that time frame. (Missing class may be necessary, but we'll try to work around your schedule as best we can.)
