Mission location update

We’re just a few days away from Sacramento! 

Due to the overwhelming response to the Mission, the morning program on Tuesday April 29th has been moved from the Sheraton Grand Sacramento (1230 J Street) to The Grand Ballroom (1215 J Street), directly across the street

As the Grand, we will hear Assemblymembers John Laird (Chair, Assembly Budget Committee) and Mike Villines (Republican Assembly Leader) speak on the ongoing budget crisis.  We will also learn about our legislative agenda and break out into our lobby groups for pre-meeting preparation. 

We will then return to the Sheraton Grand Hotel (Gardenia Ballroom) for our lunch program where State Controller John Chiang will keynote.
