With so much ground to cover from all of last week’s meetings, I made the decision to do photo highlights tonight for our readers, to be followed by more detailed accounts and viewpoints in the days ahead.

The idea of the Illinois Manufactured Housing Association’s (IMHA) Lobby Day was so intriguing to me…

Between the pull of meeting privately for close to 3 hours with the legendary George Allen and Ken Rishel, coupled with the draw to participate in IMHA’s Lobby Day Springfield, IL proved irresistible.

The Lobby Day concept was both simple and profound. Lobby Day provided the opportunity to watch our elected officials at work.
Floor Discussion on a Bill IL house - laptops, lobbyists and staff abound.
Lobby Day also provided the opportunity to be briefed by pros such as Randy Witter, the IMHA’s lobbyist.

The necessity for political engagement, the understanding of the legal processes and dynamics at play along with discussion on how to improve our Industry’s political effectiveness were all among the topics covered.
