Shape the future of your business

 


TCIA urges all green industry professionals to gather in Washington, D.C., July 15–17, 2007, for Legislative Day on the Hill. Join us in making your voice heard by the elected officials who write the laws and regulations that affect your business. There is no one who knows tree care as well as you do. And there is no one a Senator or Representative wants to talk to more than a voter who cares. You, a small business owner and voter, have a story to tell that can be as powerful as any lobbyist. You protect the environment, provide jobs, pay taxes, support your communities in any number of ways – and vote. Your industry needs you in Washington to tell your story.

Attendees will receive an issues briefing before their Hill visits, and first-time participants receive special attention and assistance from veterans of the event. Make plans today to attend.

Organized in conjunction with the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET), Legislative Day on the Hill will be held at the L’Enfant Plaza Hotel. Located at 480 L’Enfant Plaza SW in Washington D.C., their reservation phone number is 1-800-635-5065. Call and ask for the PLANET rate of $169 for single/double occupancy. The cut-off date for rate reservations is June 15, 2007. Registration for the three-day event is only $150.

For more information about Legislative Day on the Hill, please contact Mark Garvin (garvin@tcia.org) or call 1-800-733-2622.
