Second Legislative Meeting
on HB 590 Tuesday
in Raleigh
|
Tuesday, June 20
9:00 am - 11:00 am
CfAD, 14 E. Peace St., Raleigh
"
We have consolidated our position into a few specific talking points. But while trying to ensure the Senators heard our message, we also realized it was important to glean from them what they felt to be credible arguments in favor of HB 590."
For those who were unable to meet in Raleigh earlier this week on House Bill 590, AIANC Advocacy Director Richard Alsop II, AIA, has organized another session for Tuesday, June 20.
