How to build bipartisan support with Assemblymember Chad Mayes

<p>As any good lobbyist in Sacramento will tell you, at the end the day what matters is getting the 21/41 votes you need to move your bill.</p> <p><br></p> <p>This has always been a significant challenge; in our era of toxic political polarization it's can be near impossible.</p> <p><br></p> <p>That's why I'm excited to share my recent conversation with <strong>Assemblymember Chad Mayes (I - 42)</strong>. He is the only Independent in the California Legislature and let's just say he knows first hand the impact of hyper-partisanship.</p> <p><br></p> <p>I am grateful to the Assemblymember for taking time to share his valuable insight on how advocates can win support from lawmakers across the aisle/caucus.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Bottom line: it comes down to building trust. It's hard work and takes time. But it can be done.</p> <p><br></p> <p>As always, my focus is sharing actionable steps and real-world advice for advocates working to build just, sustainable communities.</p> <p><br></p> <p>As always, I welcome your feedback!</p> <p><br></p> <p>Text me at (916) 507-2144</p> <p><br></p> <p>Tweet me <a href="https://www.twitter.com/kbashamilton" target="_blank">@kbashamilton</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Or visit the website at <a href="//www.kbhadvocacy.com" target="_blank">www.kbhadvocacy.com</a></p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kristina-bas-hamilton/message
