7:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Over Zoom
BKForge is joining Planned Parenthood of Greater New York to text their supporters and spread the word about four bills awaiting Governor Hochul’s signature, including three bills on BKForge’s legislative agenda. We’ll ask our fellow New Yorkers to email the governor and show their support. No prior experience required, a quick training will be included. Please join us — taking action is always more fun when we do it together!
Monday, December 8
7:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Over Google Meet
We will recap recent lobby meetings, discuss further action to push Governor Hochul to sign priority bills, and prepare for the start of the legislative session in January.
New task force members are always welcome. Email contactbkforge@gmail.com for the link to join.
