Join us on Saturday, December 6th for the GRA’s next State Convention! We will hear from a panel about Effective Citizen Lobbying, and vote on elections for half of our Executive Committee officers. Learn “How to Follow the Money.” The panel will feature practical skills for activists such as:
- How to look up campaign disclosures.
- How to navigate the legis.ga.gov website.
- How to find a bill and see how someone voted.
- How to navigate the legislative calendar to see what is coming up.
- How to figure out who works for the political industry.
This presentation is designed to help you hone your skills and make a bigger impact on the Georgia legislature.
Featured Keynote Panelist: Rhonda Thomas with Truth in Education
Everyone is welcome to register and to attend the convention, learn from the panel, and share a meal, but only GRA members will be eligible to vote. Registration also includes a boxed Chick-fil-A lunch.
We will have the opportunity to discuss and vote on possible endorsements in pending special elections across the state, on resolutions, and on rules changes as well. Since amending the bylaws in 2023, now half of the GRA Executive Committee officers are elected in a staggered fashion every two years. This year the following offices are up for election:
- GRA President
- Junior GRA NFRA Director
- GRA 2nd Vice President
- GRA 3rd Vice President
- GRA Treasurer
Remember that under the GRA Bylaws, a person must be approved as a GRA member at least 30 days before a convention in order to be eligible to vote. If you know someone who would like to apply to join the GRA, be sure to encourage them do so early enough to ensure they can get approved before November 6th! Our volunteer new membership team works hard to ensure new members share our principles, and vetting can sometimes take up to two weeks.
