HELP SHAPE THE NEXT SCOPE VOTE!

 

In service to ‘Tip’ O’Neill’s First Rule of Politics – “All politics is local” – make plans now to join fellow politically-aware member optometrists to meet and interview aspiring state legislators – the ones who will determine your legislative future as a professional – in your own back yard.

 

LSCOA-PAC, one of COA’s small contributor PACs, is hosting interviews of top-tier candidates in contested primaries for open Assembly and Senate seats from April 24th through May 24th in the following locations:

Your help is needed to ensure that these interviews are illuminating and constructive.  These interviews are vital to support COA’s future legislative efforts.  Our goal is to have a panel of three Optometric Doctors available in each location, preferably constituents living or working in the candidates’ Districts, asking each candidate where they stand on issues crucial to your continued success.
