Answer
Success in meetings with legislators gets measured less by the photo-op and more by what happens next.
From those visits with Rep. Duckworth and Rep. LaHood, success looks like:
- Having a receptive conversation where staff ask questions and want more information (as mentioned about Rep. Duckworth’s office)
- Securing clear follow-up steps—like requests for data, stories, or future check-ins
- Seeing legislators support or consider policies that align with the advocacy focus (like #shotatlife and #VaccinesWork)
