Legislator Listening Sessions

A great way to build momentum around an issue is to speak with a legislator at an in-district listening session. These are open meetings when legislators schedule time to hear directly from their constituents about issues of concern. If you are interested in attending a listening session and would like talking points or other guidance, please contact PSW Vice President of Public Affairs Danielle Womack at dwomack@pswi.org.
