Lobby con HEAL

¿Quiénes son los grupos de presión comunitarios?

Community lobbyists help influence and encourage state legislators to implement community-centered solutions to Utah’s biggest environmental threats. As a community lobbyist with HEAL Utah, you will share your perspective on legislative policy regarding our four main goals: To protect communities from air pollution, to build an inclusive energy future, to build climate resiliency and health equity, and to protect communities from toxic and radioactive waste.

 

These goals reflect our commitment to addressing the pressing environmental challenges facing our communities and working towards a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future for Utah.

¿Cómo funciona?

Los cabilderos comunitarios (¡ese es usted!) son llamados cuando vemos una oportunidad para que el público brinde comentarios y exprese sus preocupaciones o apoyo sobre la legislación propuesta. Nuestro equipo prepara hojas informativas y puntos de discusión y está aquí para ayudarle a comunicarse con sus legisladores.

¿Por qué es importante?

Los legisladores sólo tienen 45 días para votar sobre muchos temas y por la mayoría no tienen toda la información necesaria para tomar una decisión informada sobre la legislación. Al brindar su perspectiva sobre un tema, usted podría ser la única voz que convenza a un legislador para que vote a favor o en contra de una legislación crítica.
