We’ll have our training dinner on Monday, March 14th–all are invited to join in this special evening of updates from legislative insiders and issue caucuses with environmental advocates from around the state. Agenda-2011 lobby day
2011 is a turning point for the environment in Texas. With the Legislature set to take up the future of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, the Texas Railroad Commission, and the Texas Water Development Board this year, Texas lawmakers will determine how our health and our environmental are protected for the next decade. Texans need these agencies to be more responsive to average citizens, more transparent in the their activities, and more protective of our most precious resources–our health and our natural resources.
For those traveling from outside the state, ACT is making special arrangements including booking hotel rooms and working with local groups to coordinate carpools. Please email us at act@acttexas.org with any questions.
We need to let them know that we want a beautiful Texas and a clean energy future! Will you join us?
Thanks for all you do to protect our environment!
