Find your legislator HERE. \n\n\n\n*Please include your district number and representatives in the "comments" section.\n\n\n\nEncourage young professionals in your firm to attend Capitol Consulting Day. We need to begin to "pass the torch" so that future generations can get involved\, become comfortable in the political process\, and continue to move things forward for the State of Minnesota and the engineering profession\, as a whole. Meeting with legislators doesn't need to be intimidating. Believe it or not\, they actually want to meet with their constituents to better understand their issues of importance. This can\, and will\, affect the way legislators vote.\n\n\n\nThe PR Committee created a short video that will help you understand the process of meeting with your legislators. WATCH BELOW and share with others in your office!
