NIFAA-Nar Webinar III:
How to Launch and Run a Political Organization for Animals in Your Town, City, County, or State —and the Simple Steps It Takes to Do It
"Change comes from power. Power comes from the organization." Sal Alinsky, the father of grassroots organizing
Power in the lawmaking arena comes from an issue group's ability to impact election outcomes "electioneer." A bill's merits and, the need for it are low on the lists of factors that determine its fate. Only political groups can electioneer—charities cannot. A political group signals to lawmakers that advocates of the issue are not naive or amateurs, that they understand how to wield power, to endanger the lawmaker's re-election, and to play to win. Every other issue pursues legislation through political organizations, because they work.
You will learn:
•What a political organization is and how it works.
•How to start your political organization for animals in your town, city, county, or state.
•The structure of your political organization.
•The on-going tasks your political organization will perform and how to perform them.
•Recruitment is your number one activity.
•Getting and using political district maps.
•The different types of political organizations--what each can and cannot do legally.
•What papers to file to launch each type of political organization and where to file them. It's so much easier than forming a charity.
•Political action committees can be formed in 2 days. •Starting an independent political group.
•How rescue and rights charities for affiliated political groups.
