The event will take place at the Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee, 400 S Monroe St, Tallahassee, FL 32399.

We will be visiting and meeting our lawmakers to raise awareness and voice concerns pertaining to the auction industry in Florida including our thoughts on proposed deregulation of the auction industry.

We plan to meet at 8:30 on Wednesday morning, January 29th, in the House of Representatives Cafeteria. We will organize teams for the day and we’ll have some handouts and maps for each person present. The Teams will have a list of Senators/Representatives offices to visit and with proper planning, we will cover the entire list by the end of day.

We NEED participation from all members (and Florida licensees who might have an interest in becoming a member).  To make the Day on the Hill successful, we encourage you to:

• Clear your calendar for January 29th (and the day before if you need to do that for travel)

• Contact fellow auctioneers in your area to encourage participation (possible carpool)

• Contact your Senator’s and Representative’s local office NOW  to let them know that the FAA will be visiting Tallahassee on January 29th and you look forward to seeing them in Tallahassee on January 29th.

This is an exciting event. It is not only enjoyable but a valuable experience and great opportunity for you to meet your lawmakers and those who can impact the future of your business and livelihood. Closer to the event, we will let participants know a hotel where members who come in the day before are staying.

RSVP on the FAA Facebook Page or contact Angela Johnson or Don Cotton for more info.
