GBU Coffee Chat: Just a Bill

Grab your coffee and join Green Building United for our next virtual Coffee Chat: Just a Bill. This session breaks down how a bill becomes a law—specifically at the state and local levels in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia. From idea to introduction, committee hearings to the final vote, Emily Pugliese (Policy & Programs Director) and Labaron Lenard-Palmer (Director of Sustainable Building Strategies) will walk through the development of a bill and explain how policies that shape our buildings, neighborhoods, and climate responses come to life.

Whether you are new to policy advocacy or a seasoned civic participant, we will break down the processes and highlight where—and how—you can get involved.
