This year because of COVID-19, we will not be having a live day at our state capitol in Lansing, Michigan.
We ask all local PTAs across the state contact their State Representatives and State Senators to set up a virtual meetings during March 24-21, 2021. We will provide a step-by-step worksheet for setting up these meetings and talking points for the conversation. Sign up to be a volunteer for your community when you sign up to attend the legislative conference on March 20th, 2021. While these meetings may not occur on March 24th, the goal is to complete them around this time. Please note, the Michigan Legislature is not in session from March 29th – April 9th. However, as all meetings will be virtual, it is still possible to schedule them within this time frame.
