Second Tuesday
On the second Tuesday of those months when Congress is in
session, the Washington Office presents a two-hour briefing (10:00 a.m.–noon)
on the status of bills that relate to topics addressed by past General Assemblies
of the Presbyterian Church. After the briefing, attendees are encouraged to meet
with their members of Congress to advocate positions of compassion, justice,
and peace inspired by the Bible and promoted by the Church.

The Washington Office staff includes Presbyterian clergy
who are specialists on a range of public policy issues. If you come for a Second
Tuesday briefing, these staff members will make sure that you are comfortable
with the substance and terminology of your chosen issues, and with technical
aspects of the legislative process, before you visit your Congressperson. After
you return home, the office can help you track your issue and learn the outcome
of your efforts.
Please consider joining us at 100 Maryland Avenue NE. Call
(202) 543-1126 for more information.
We ask that you check the Federal
Government Operating Status in the Washington Area during times of inclement
weather or emergency. The Washington Office follows the Federal Government guidelines
and may close on such occasions. If the Federal Government is closed, we may
also be closed.
