Government Affairs

"Your voice is a vital link! The active involvement of ASCLS members in the political process provides the vital link between the society’s government relation goals and the legislators who can help to achieve these goals. Your participation in the legislative process really does make a difference. Grassroots response to recent legislative actions successfully influenced several bills before the U.S. Congress. Your voice makes a difference! (asclsnd.org)"
