Columbia
REA Electric Ambassadors
The Electric Ambassador program is a grassroots effort to educate
Columbia REA members about the Cooperative and the electric utility
industry. The electric utility industry is changing at a rapid
pace. It is our goal to enlist member support in shaping public
policy and the future of our electric cooperative. Legislators
want to hear directly from our members – the voters. The
more voters they hear from the more they will listen to what we
have to say. Being an Electric Ambassador is easy, and lets you
to be as involved as your time will allow.
Electric Ambassadors receive these benefits:
POWERLINE, a quarterly newsletter covering the grassroots movement,
energy issues and other electric cooperative communities in Washington
state.
Special briefings on current issues affecting the electric utility
industry.
Receptions with elected officials sponsored by Columbia REA.
Public recognition during Columbia REA’s Annual Meeting.
Optional visits with your legislators organized for you by Columbia
REA.
We hope Electric Ambassador’s will:
- Support the goals and objectives of Columbia REA by
participating on committees.
- Meet with elected officials and staff to state your
concerns about utility related issues.
- Give us your feedback on Columbia REA initiatives
and program activities.
- Write a letter or e-mail that explains how a piece
of legislation or policy affects your co-op. We will provide
you with
all the background information you will need on an issue.
- Call your legislator’s office to notify him/her
of your views
