Before the Visit

How to contact your Member
Call the Member's office and ask for
the person on the staff who is responsible for adult education
appropriations. If there is a separate person handling adult
education appropriations and adult education reauthorization, make
sure you are talking to the person responsible for appropriations.
You can also ask that he/she invite the individual responsible for
adult education in general because the information you are
providing will be of interest to both. It may be that the individual
handling authorization issues is also handling appropriations issues
related to adult education so in this case you would only need to
meet with one person.
