  2. Register for our REQUIRED Advocacy Day Prep Webinar on May 18 at 7pm. We will cover tips and tricks for meeting with lawmakers, logistics for the big day, and the top line messages of our priority issues—Wetlands, Conservation Trust Funds, and Heirs Property (we may add to this list, depending on how the legislative session progresses in the coming weeks).
