What Should I Say?
- Identify the issue or legislation by name and, if applicable, by bill number.
- Explain the issue in your own words.
- State your position.
- Tie your concerns about the issue directly to your institution; use facts and examples.
- If you can, tie your concerns into a current "hot button." (For example, a reduction in Medicaid reimbursement may force you to cut back on a drug rehabilitation program at a time when drugs are considered to be a critical social problem.)
- Ask for specific action.
