Register for Library Legislative Day - February 21, 2017!

Dear WEMTA Members,

We are sharing this important invitation from Nick Dimassis of WLA. Please consider attending this important event.

"Many people think politics is all money.  In reality relationships and constituent activity are the true drivers of legislative change.  Fortunately, relationship building is what libraries do best - at Legislative Day and all year 'round."  --Steven Conway, Government Relations Advisor WLA 

WLA looks toward achieving some ambitious legislative goals over the next few years, and it has to start now.  It's all about building relationships with your legislators.
