Constituents are best, but it could be a naturopathic doctor, your lobbyist or your sponsor. Plan your approach so that you aren't stumbling over each other. Reconvene the group often to re-mark floor chart. Key your lobbying strategy to selected legislators. Seek out legislators who are not only supporters, but have the influence to support others.
Legislators lobby each other.
Be prepared for brief encounters, often in motion, as you walk down the hall with legislator. Often, you will only have time to blurt out your name and what your interests are. Hand the legislator a fact sheet on the bill. Ask his or her position. If you get more time, remember to gear your pitch to the legislator's interests, not your own.
