2024 UEA Educator Day on the Hill

Come learn about education bills, WPU increase, meet legislators, eat some yummy lunch, and hang with some awesome educators from across the state. This is an opportunity for members to attend legislative meetings, have face-to-face conversations with policymakers and take part in the political process. In the morning you will be with other educators across the state in a “briefing session” discussing educational bills.  UEA Educator Day on the Hill occurs on Fridays as listed below during the legislative session.

Typical Educator Day on the Hill activities:

• Meet at 7 a.m. on Capitol Hill in the Aspen Room, located in the Senate Building (350 N. State Street).

• The UEA Legislative Team will brief attendees on education bills and the public education budget.

• Attend a committee meeting or watch floor debates to see policymaking in action.

• The UEA Legislative Team will assist you in contacting legislators from your legislative districts.

• Educator Day on the Hill attendees reconvene at noon in the Aspen Room to “de-brief” the morning’s activities. Lunch is provided if you preregister.

You MUST register. There is not a cafeteria, so lunch has to be preordered to be delivered.  Since there is a sub shortage this will also impact if educators can attend. Your substitute will need to be secured asap. Below is the link you need to complete to attend. Once confirmed you will get a registration link to secure your lunch.

You will receive a confirmation from Barb with the date you will be scheduled to attend and who is paying the sub. If you do not get a confirmation email within in a week,  please reach out to her.
