The social policy issue I chosen was educational inequality.

Step 1: Research the Issue. 

• How did this issue come before the committee and why is this issue relevant? • How is this issue currently addressed by law? • What stage is the issue in the legislative process and what is the next step in the process? • Does CAI have any public policies on the issue? Is the issue a CAI Federal or State priority? • Who are the committee members that will decide the issue? Visit the legislative chamber to understand the environment. • What is opposition’s point of view? Could you compromise on some parts with them? 

Step 2: Develop 2-3 key points that you want to convey to the committee. • Use layperson’s terms. Avoid jargon and too many statistics. • Personalize your testimony. What does it mean to you? Use anecdotes from your community. 

Step 3: Prepare Written Testimony Written testimony should be no longer than one page and limited to one bill or issue. Always be polite and positive and do not attack or threaten a government official. 

 For example, 

“Dear Madam Chair”. 

1st Paragraph 

• Identify yourself as a member of CAI and a constituent, resident, or professional working with a community association. • Identify any elected or volunteer positions you hold within your community association, local CAI Chapter, or state legislative action committee. • Include both the association names and the number of homes you are representing. • In your own words, state the purpose of your letter and your position on the issue. 

2nd Paragraph • 

State and explain the 2-3 points you developed in Step 2. Make sure to include how this decision impacts you, your association, or your business. 

3rd Paragraph • Offer positive suggestions or alternative strategies to resolve the issue. Final Paragraph • Thank the legislator or committee for hearing your concerns. Ask them to support your position, for example, “Therefore, I urge the committee to support HB 309.”
