Webinar: A New Policy's Guide to Engaging your Member of Congress

This August, Members of Congress will be returning to their home districts and meeting with their constituents. What they need to find is that since the last August recess, grassroots support for a fundamental change in U.S. policy towards Palestine and Israel has not ebbed, but rather has become more urgent, more compelling, and more informed than ever.

That’s why A New Policy will be offering a free webinar for constituents and grassroots organizations on how to engage with Members during the August recess on Palestine and related issues. Drawing on decades of experience in government, and A New Policy’s daily interactions with both Democrats and Republicans in Congress, this webinar will cover:

- Congressional/Legislative Update & Perspective
- How to identify opportunities to engage with your Member of Congress (Representatives and Senators) during the August Recess.
- Tips and Tricks to make them stop and think.
- Honey or Vinegar? What’s the right tone?
- Framing and Connecting: Which angle to take?
- Asks – how to identify the appropriate asks, how to make them, and how to follow-up on them.
- Transactionalism and Relationship Building.
- Thinking beyond the Member – engaging the mechanisms of local party politics.

We hope you and your members can join us for this free webinar with former U.S. government officials Josh Paul and Fayrouz Saad.
