Advocacy Resources
Advocacy is more than just lobbying. It means taking an active role to ensure that federal and state policies support cooperatives’ work on behalf of their members. Through our collective efforts, we have championed the electric co-op business model and helped keep the lights on for more than 42 million consumer-members.

This
one-day course helps directors connect the dots between what they as individual directors can do on behalf of their cooperative while maximizing relationships with their statewide and NRECA to make sure the co-op voice is heard on Capitol Hill and in the regulatory agencies.
At the
Legislative Conference, electric co-op directors, managers and employees have the opportunity to strengthen relationships with their congressional delegations and staff and to advocate on legislative issues affecting electric co-ops and their consumer members.
