The Tobacco Endgame Center will schedule your legislative meetings based on the voting address that you provide in registration. You will be joined by others who also live in the same Assembly and Senate districts. Attending the legislative meetings is mandatory for all I&E Days participants. \nBecause these meetings are done in a group\, there needs to be one person to serve as the Meeting Lead for each of the legislative meetings. The role of the Meeting Lead is to: \n\nServe as a point of contact to the Tobacco Endgame Center and for other people scheduled for that meeting.\nOrganize the meeting attendees to prepare for the legislative visit.\nEnsure that feedback is provided to the Tobacco Endgame Center team.\n\nHotel\nI&E Days will be headquartered at the Holiday Inn Downtown Sacramento and a block of rooms are available for I&E Day participants.
