Legislative Advocacy Guiding Principles 3 Know’s Know who you are. Know who you are talking to. Know what is important to who you are talking to. 3 Be’s Be flexible. Be relentless. Be honest. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Know who you are. Have clarity in your message. Use common language. Be concise. Have your stump speech. Have your elevator pitch. Protect those above you. Connect your priorities with their priorities. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Know who you are talking to. Politics is about relationships It really is about who you know. All politics is local. Make friends when you don’t need them so that you will have them when you do need them (Lyndon Johnson). Always be thankful (Rule of 7). © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Know what is important to them. Know their interest Do your homework. This is not about you; this is about them. Find something and someone that you have in common. Utilize volunteer advocates from the area that they represent. Training and preparation is key. Figure out where the real power is. Could be a staffer or a friend or a family member. Know how to make your issue, his/her issue (Rule of 12). © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Be Flexible. Politics is about compromise. Politics is about negotiation. Make sure you ask for enough. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Be Relentless. Understand the importance of re-election. It is all about re-election. If you don’t run, you cannot win. If you don’t win, you cannot govern. You have a network (asset) that they see could be beneficial for them. Follow the MONEY ($). Review campaign reports to see who has their interest. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy Be Honest Don’t lie. Don’t over-promise. Don’t commit someone else unless you are 110% sure of their agreement. Don’t agree to something that you are not comfortable with. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC

Legislative Advocacy The Two Most Important Questions in Politics How many of you know your legislators, policy- makers and/or influencers? How many of your legislators, policy-makers and/or influencers know you? The Bottom-line It is equally important for you to know them and for them to know you. © Marshall Stewart Institute, LLC
