Only 5 DAYS until Lobby Day guys and gals!! EEK!

Day 5 info focuses on preparing for Lobby Day. Remember on Day 2 when we found our senators? Today we are going to go one step further, and make an appointment to see your senator on March 6th. It is important to make an appointment, as often senators are busy. Making an appointment helps to make sure they are available.

If you missed out on Day 2, here is the link to find your senator:
http://nebraskalegislature.gov/senators/senator_find.php

Once you have found your senator, click the "Web Page" box below their picture. Once on their page, their contact information is available on the upper right hand corner, including where their office is inside the Capitol Building. Be sure to keep track of that room number! (But don't worry if you lose it, that's what we are here for on Lobby Day). Feel free to email or call your senator, and schedule a time to speak with them on March 6th, between 10:00am and noon.
