Contact Your Legislators
As small businesses in their legislative districts, direct outreach from our member brewery owners/employees to legislators will drastically increase our odds of passing these bills!
-Send your brewery’s legislators a customized email expressing your support (Brewery Email Tool)
-Invite your legislator to the brewery for a meeting/tour (Download Email Template Here)
-Are you an Allied Trade or Retail member looking to express support? Please Sign Our Petition instead! (More direct email campaigns will be launched as the bills progress through committee.)

Ideas for Further Support
Here are a few additional areas where we could use help from our members to amplify our voice!
- Spreading the word about Beer To You in your customer newsletter
- Emailing your mug club/bottle club/loyalty program members
- Adding a link to the Beer To You take action page on your website
- Writing an Op-Ed in your local newspaper*
- Asking your city council member to file a local resolution expressing support for Beer To You (this won’t change state law or local ordinance, but can be a good local media/visibility tactic)*
And of course…
- Contribute to CraftPAC and/or have an event benefitting CraftPAC at your brewery
- Join the Government Affairs Committee as an enlisted member!
*These ideas specifically will require some coordination and could be more effective in certain districts/regions of the state. If you’re interested please email Guild Staff to discuss
