Policy Workshop, Faith in Place
Vernon Park Church of God
9011 S. Stony Island Ave.
Chicago, IL

It’s policy workshop time again. Join Faith in Place for one of these three offerings, intended to introduce our legislative strategy for 2012, and get people ready to write letters, make phone calls, hold in-district visits and go to Springfield with us to advocate for the sustainable state we want.

This year’s efforts will focus on the fracking regulation we got through the Senate but not the House in 2011 (we’re very hopeful it will pass this year, with everyone’s efforts), and a new bill designed to expand the rights of citizens to look to their own interests when they are impacted adversely by environmentally destructive activity such as coal mining or waste disposal.

EJC plans to be there.  Will you?
