FROM THE OFFICE OF THE ASUCR VICE PRESIDENT OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS

Hello Highlanders!

Do you see yourself representing UCR students on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C., the State Capitol in Sacramento, or even Riverside City Hall? You will be able to do this in all these spaces if you join the Legislative Advocacy Committee (Lobby Corps committee) as part of the ASUCR Office of External Affairs, no experience needed! We train all of our members and offer them the proper support and resources so they can be well-versed on legislative text and legislative processes. We get to meet with legislators at a local, state, and federal levels, and we represent not only UCR, but students from the University of California, and our respective identities. University students should have a say in decisions and legislation that directly affects them, and by joining this committee you will be able to make impactful influences on legislators and decision-making institutions.

This year we are excited to announce that we will be focusing on a handful of exciting campaigns such as financial aid reform, disability justice, divestment from the 30-meter telescope in Mauna Kea, and many more! Join our committee by using the link below no later than October 3, 2022, we will send the meeting location and more information once the quarter begins. We accept applications on a rolling basis. Attendance is important, the more you attend our meetings, you will have a higher chance to be selected to lobby in person in Sacramento and/or Washington D.C.

What are you waiting for? Apply today!
