4. Meet with lawmakers on Advocacy Day: Tuesday, April 29, 2025 in Raleigh (residents of the Piedmont, Sandhills, and Coastal Plain regions) or on Zoom (residents of the Mountain region). Keep your calendar open from 8 to 5 on April 29 because lawmakers often don't commit to meeting times until the week of Advocacy Day.
