Did you know that you can visit the State Capitol while your representatives are in session and call them out to meet with you about your concerns? This is called “Calling to Ropes”. Members of our legislative team will be present to help you know where to go and what to say and do. This is an exciting way to witness your state government in action and meet your representative without an appointment.
Step One: Fill out this form, which will help you (and us) know WHO your representatives in the Georgia House and Senate are.
Step Two: Sign up using the form below so that we know you are coming!
Step Three: Plan to show up at 9:00 am to give yourself time to park and get inside! You will be prepped, handed information, and accompanied to the Gallery Ropes.
IMPORTANT DETAILS:
Bring a photo ID to gain entrance into the buildings.
Someone from our legislative team will meet you in our bill sponsor Rep. Karen Mathiak’s office. This is a soft place to land, ask questions, breastfeed a baby, leave your coats/belongings and catch your breath.
