NCRA Visits The Capitol 2024

Registration is now closed!
If you are still interested in attending, contact ED Portia Sinnott via the website contact page.

You are invited to join us June 20 in downtown Sacramento at the Tsakopoulos Library Galleria for our first legislative day in perhaps a decade! The free interactive meeting runs from 9am – 4pm including lunch. You do not have to attend the whole day.

The program includes presentations from Joanne Brasch, Director of Advocacy and Outreach, California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC) and Krystal Raynes, Policy Associate, Californians Against Waste (CAW).

Topics include legislation basics, EPR and how to lobby effectively. We’ll also go over NCRA’s priority bills for the day and “role play” practice meetings with legislators.

After lunch we’ll have meetings with staff members of Assembly-member Ting, Senator Blakespear, Assemblymember Wood and Senator Weiner. (with more to come!).

Visit our Legislative Tracker for a brief overview of what’s on our radar.
