2018 Legislative Documents
Talking Points give Legislative Day advocates the background on the bills and issues so you have understanding of the issues and can answer questions. These are for you, not for Legislators. You leave the Platform with your legislators, along with any other documentation your region recommends. The Talking Points are prepared by the stakeholders of that Platform plank.
