Your efforts will help ensure the proposed bill gains the attention and support it needs to become law. Time Commitment: Flexible. Even a few hours a week can make a significant difference. Location: This opportunity can be conducted remotely, with options for in-person involvement in events or meetings if desired. How to Apply: If you’re ready to make a difference, please contact us by reaching out here with your name, a brief statement of interest, and any relevant experience.
