Congressional Meetings
Plan Ahead
Reach out to your elected representative's office well in advance to arrange a meeting tailored to your needs (aim for a few weeks ahead, if feasible). Many Members of Congress offer a user-friendly online form on their official government websites to initiate a meeting request.
- Find Your Legislator and Schedule Your Meeting
- Go to USAGov to find the contact information for your state and local policymakers.
- Enter your home address
- Go to their website and request a meeting
- Provide essential details, including:
- Your identity
- Additional attendees
- The anticipated time duration (usually around 15 minutes),
- The specific topic you wish to discuss. Let them know you’re a local constituent and a part of the COMTO View From The Hill Advocacy Day.
To ensure your meeting is confirmed, take the proactive step of making a confirmation call the day before your scheduled appointment.
