Join your fellow FPA members in Sacramento on March 3rd for a productive and FUN day at our State Capitol.
Help FPA become more and more relevant to our state representatives. Help your local FPA chapter and your state chapter (FPA of California) represent you and your business. That’s what Advocacy is all about.
Go HERE to register for this event. FPA will set your appointments, set you up on a team for 2 or 3 visits, give you talking points, and arm you with “leave behind packages” for your Assemblymember and State Senator.
