Commit to be an Education Advocate
in your Legislative district!

MNEA’s new Education Advocate program seeks members who will be a contact person to their respective State House or Senate member on public education issues. MNEA’s Government Relations department will pair members with their legislators and provide information, talking points and resources to conduct important legislative outreach throughout the 2011-2012 year. In a time where the threats we face in the state legislature include elimination of tenure, extreme cuts to school funding and banning payroll deduction for dues and PAC, we MUST recruit more members to have in person conversations with elected officials.

Yes, I am willing to complete at least two of the following four activities:  

• Stay connected through email alerts.
• Encourage MNEA members to attend Capitol Action Lobby Days in Jefferson City.
• Participate in candidate screenings.
• Coordinate a meeting with my legislator.
