Make Plans to Come to Day at the Capitol 2010

If you have not yet made plans to come to CAHU’s DAY AT THE CAPITOL (DATC), you need to do so as soon as possible. Given the events that have occurred in Washington, and the role that will devolve to states, there has never been a more important year since 1993 to come to DATC. This is your opportunity to help shape events for agents. In other words, your participation is important if agents are to stay in business.

DATC will feature a reception on May 11 for Assembly Republican Leader Martin Garrick. There is a certain symmetry to this event: CAHU was one of the very first organizations to support Assembly Member Garrick’s candidacy when he first ran for the Assembly, and now he has risen to the rank of Assembly Republican Leader.

On May 12, the plenary session at the Sheraton Grand highlight a presentation by Janet Trautwein, CEO of NAHU, who will give an update on events on the national scene and what that will mean for agents. We’ll also hear two excellent “tell it like it is” presentations on the California scene. The first will be by Dan Morain, who is the Senior Editor-Opinion of the Sacramento Bee. Dan will talk about how things really work in Sacramento. The second is by former Senator Jim Brulte, who is one of the two best political minds among current and former elected officials. Senator Brulte will give his forever informational and entertaining presentations about the state of California politics.

Armed with this information, CAHU members will be able to spend the afternoon as “citizen lobbyists”, telling the CAHU story over at the Capitol to key members of the Legislature.

Make plans to come to DATC. Do it today.
