The MCCPTA Legislative Committee seeks volunteers!
Is there something you want to change in our schools or education system? This is the committee for you. No legal training is required to have a voice for change. Come help us determine priorities and advocate for change. If this sounds too intimidating there are other ways to contribute while you learn about the process.
The purpose of the committee is to follow, influence and sometimes originate ideas for federal, state, and county council legislation affecting education where deemed appropriate by either the Maryland PTA or MCCPTA membership. Your assistance is needed in any of the following areas:
- Follow emerging issues presented at the Maryland General Assembly.
- Follow emerging legislative issues presented by either the County Council or Board of Education.
- Support special events being hosted by the committee.
- Attend public hearings at the Board of Education, the County Council or the Maryland General Assembly.
- Support testimony made by the State PTA or MCCPTA President or designee at special functions.Draft documents such as position statements, resolutions, correspondence and legislative platforms that our committee develops.
All inquiries and visitors, one-time volunteers or new committee members are welcome.
