Nothing is more effective at making big change than real people talking with lawmakers face-to-face.

That’s why, for the 2023 Texas Legislative Session, we’re hosting a gathering called LOBBY DAYS in Austin for farmers and consumers (that is, you!) to share your stories with your representatives each month of the session (February – May). You are invited to attend!

We’re also pleased to be able to offer travel stipends for $150 (some for more depending on the circumstances and the geographic distance) to help enable more people to participate who have been previously unable to attend. Travel Stipends are generously donated by your fellow members!

We have four dates to choose from:

• Monday, February 13, 2023
• Wednesday, March 22, 2023 *Note: This Date Was Updated 2/9/23
• Wednesday, April 12, 2023; Time: Noon to 4 PM
• Wednesday, May 10, 2023; Time: Noon to 4 PM

To register and/or apply for a travel stipend for one or more of the above dates, click the button below.

We hope to see you in attendance at one of our Lobby Days. Together, we can make our voices heard!
