Please RSVP and let us know the names of your state representative and senator. We have provided a link to look them up on the registration form.
There is no limit on the number of reservations for TXUUJM Legislative Action Day in Austin, and the larger the number the more clearly our UU voices will be heard. After you register please share this with your friends/fellow congregants and invite them to join us!
Please complete this form separately for each individual attendee. All information will be kept confidential and not shared with anyone outside of TXUUJM, and the clergy and staff of your UU congregation.
Once you register, you'll be contacted about coordinating visits to the offices of various state representatives and senators, both before, during and after March 20th. You'll also receive information about parking and access to the room in the Capitol building where we will meet, debrief, update agendas and schedules, etc.
Expect to begin receiving updates along the way.
Together we WILL bend Texas Toward Justice!
