Abstract

To take action on your concerns, you will need to build on what you learned in Chap. 2 about the basics of the how the legislative and regulatory processes work broadly and develop an understanding of how you can influence those processes. Specifically, in this chapter, we will discuss how to influence the actions being taken in Congress so that you can affect the decision about funding and authorization for Federal programs you care about (such as Title VII/VIII).
