Here’s an excellent old school video on how to establish a relationship with your elected officials & lobby them more effectively.* In my four decades in Washington, this is the best “how to” lobbying video I’ve ever seen. I’ve used it to train activists across the country.

I work for NY City govt as an attorney and a big part of my job is overseeing the City's use of City property for public events, businesses, and other uses, like SummerStage, free Wifi kiosks, and ferries. It's neat to walk around my hometown and see the results of my work.
