Social media and advocacy at the Legislature

Following social media at the Legislature provides several benefits, including up-to-the minute news, reports and documents, opportunities for involvement and the ability to share district information with other users and follow specific topics and committees.

GET INVOLVED ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Follow your legislators and persons of interest.
Post questions and interact with legislators on social media. Respond to a post regarding a bill before the Legislature. Post a tweet about a policy before the Legislature.
Share an article that reflects your position on a policy before the Legislature. Share a district event, accolade or policy decision with legislators.
Tag legislators in posts. If you post about a legislator, use their handle (@member) in your post. Use hashtags or search for an issue hashtag and include it in your post.
Share a message about what is happening at the Legislature. If you visit a legislator or they come visit you, share a photo or message on social media about the visit.
