<div>Several of you have already made an appointment to visit with Legislators on Thursday, March 5 at the State Capitol but we need many more of you to make an appointment. It is better to make appointments now instead of waiting until the last minute because the Legislators schedules really fill up fast.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It is very easy to make an appointment. Just call your Legislator's office and ask for an appointment. Go <a href="http://capwiz.com/ala/or/home/">here</a> to find out who you Legislators are and how to contact them. After you make the appointment please add the information to the <a href="http://olanetwork.wikispaces.com/OLA+Legislative+Day+Appointments">wiki</a> or contact me and I will add your information to the wiki.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You can go <a href="http://olanetwork.wikispaces.com/OLA+Legislative+Day">here</a> to find out more about what will be happening on Legislative Day.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>See you in Salem!<br><br></div>
