Registration OPEN for Optometry's Day at the Capitol on January 27, 2016
The GOA is hosting its annual Optometry's Day at the Capitol on Wednesday, January 27 2016 from 8:30 a.m. -11 a.m. beginning in the Sloppy Floyd Room in the Sloppy Floyd Building next to the Capitol. It is crucial to show statewide legislative support of our profession, therefore our goal is to have at least 75 optometrists attend to illustrate our strength. Register online HERE
The event will begin in the Floyd Room with a plated, hot breakfast where we will receive a legislative update from the GOA lobby team and state legislators. There, you will break into small groups, each led by a member of the GOA lobby team or GOA leadership who will guide you through the lobbying process inside the Capitol. The Association will provide you with the names of your legislators and talking points. Following the breakfast we will walk across the street to the Capitol where GOA members will meet with their state representatives and senators.
Our success legislatively is due to these events and GOA PAC donations. Make sure to REGISTER TODAY! We look forward to seeing you in January.
