How do legislators get ideas for changing the laws or creating new ones? From you! There are several ways to get involved in the legislative process in order to make known your ideas, needs, support and nonsupport of the issues.

Here is what you can do before elections:
1. Meet the candidates in your district and ask them about issues of importance to you.
2. If the candidate merits your support, contribute your time and resources.
