Attend a Lobby Day at the State Capitol!

SEIU has had a long history of political activism and every year, SEIU State Council hosts a variety of lobby days on important working family issues.   We believe that it is necessary to work with legislators to keep them informed; if politicians are not aware of SEIU members positions on working family issues, their attention is focused in other directions.  Together, we can make politicians listen - and take action - on issues like health care, education, and retirement security.
