Lobby Corps

The Sac State Lobby Corps is ASI’s advocacy branch, serving as a policy analysis and advisory committee to the ASI Board of Directors. It is made up of Sacramento State students who advocate at the local, state, and federal levels.

We offer classes and training sessions that teach students how to effectively represent the interests of Sac State students. Members of Lobby Corps learn to organize visits to the Capitol and engage directly with state legislators and their staff. The mission of the Sacramento State Lobby Corps is to ensure that student voices are included in discussions about higher education in California.

Lobby Corps Duties

• Advise the ASI Board of Directors on whether to support or oppose legislation.
• Research legislation that affects higher education and the students at Sac State.
• Attend committee hearings relating to education at the State Capitol.
• Meet with Assembly and Senate members to discuss legislative bills and their progress.

“Make an impact! Be the voice of Sac State’s students at the Capitol!”
