Are you committed to advocating across all lines of division and holding those in power accountable? The Pennsylvania Poor People's Campaign invites you to join our 5 week course, starting March 3rd at 7 PM! This course will meet each Monday during March from 7-8:30PM.
We will be covering the basics of the PA legislature:
Leadership positions
Reading and analyzing a bill
Setting and preparing for meeting with legislators
Researching your legislator
We know the political system is not designed for the poor and working class and instead legislators are incentivized by the ruling class to move their agenda–rather than the people’s agenda.
After receiving this training, we urge you to put this knowledge into practice and join our PA PPC teams!
