FLC Legislative Conference
The League’s Legislative Conference is held each November. During this meeting, the League’s Legislative Policy Statement is approved by the membership. The policy statement, the work product of the League’s five legislative policy committees, directs the League’s lobbying efforts for the upcoming Florida legislative session. Keynote speakers are also on hand to provide their perspective on the key municipal issues and the state’s political climate.
FLC Legislative Action Day
Every year during session, League members spend Legislative Action Day in Tallahassee to hear from legislators and League staff on what the legislative session holds for municipalities. Following the meeting, delegates go to the Capitol to meet with their legislators one-on-one and to let them know what issues are important to the League and their cities. The Florida League of Cities Legislative Action Day is a valuable opportunity for members to get to know their legislators, and to view the Legislature at work first hand. The date of this conference varies year to year, depending on session schedules.
