Advocacy is not a one-way street. The most effective relationships on the Hill are built when we show up not only with our own asks, but also with a genuine willingness to be a resource. That's why COSSBA Executive Director Dr. Kathy McFarland continues to meet with members of Congress to discuss issues that matter to COSSBA members and to reiterate that COSSBA members are here to be a resource for them.
