About Our Committees
MASA Federal Advocacy Committee
The Federal Advocacy Committee is responsible for establishing communications with MN’s eight U.S. Congresspersons and MN U.S. Senators. As more federal legislation is enacted that impacts local schools, this committee works towards a strong and unified voice to influence legislation at the national level.
MASA Legislative/Education Positions Committee
The Legislative Committee is responsible for developing organizational position statements reflecting the view of the MASA membership. The Committee identifies issues, gathers information, solicits input from members, and conducts research. The Committee develops the written legislative priorities (educational position statements and platform) in preparation for publishing and distribution to members, legislators, other policy makers, and other agencies as appropriate, prior to and during the legislative session. Committee members may be asked to provide written or oral testimony to policy makers.
