| You’re Invited:Using Social Media for Legislative Action In today’s digital age, there isn’t much that you can’t do online. From grocery shopping and take-out, to conferences and family gatherings, to dating and dinners with friends, being in the midst of a global pandemic has pushed our use of the internet to places we couldn’t have imagined just a few short years ago. Did you know that this also extends to how we put pressure on our elected officials?
