Ep. 11: Lobbying for Advocacy (feat. Courtney Snowden)

For many progressives, the thought of hiring a lobbyist may have never even crossed the mind once. And it’s not a surprise. Lobbying has a stigma and its association with certain unscrupulous actors hasn’t done the industry any favors. That’s why Joe and Martín spend this episode shedding some light on what is often seen as a profession operating in the shadows. Learn what lobbyists do, how lobbyists can work with advocacy organizations, and whether you might need different lobbyists for different sides of the aisle. Also learn what and who are more important than any lobbyist ever will be. Tune in to hear from Courtney Snowden, a lobbyist who shakes up what you think of when you picture who a lobbyist is and what they do.Resources Lobby Visits for Nonprofits: Planning a Lobby DayHow Do I Kick Off My Legislative Advocacy Program?I'm Just a Bill Song-Schoolhouse RockConnect with us!If you have campaign questions or want to learn more, reach out to us using the contact information below.The Campaign Workshop: Twitter: @cmpwrkshpInstagram: @TheCampaignWorkshopEmail: [email protected] FuldTwitter: @joefuldInstagram: @joefuldMartín Diego GarciaTwitter: @gmartindiegoInstagram: @gmartindiegoPresented by The Campaign Workshop
