We had a great day on The Hill advocating for full funding of Titles 1, 2, and 4 and other legislation important to music educators. The staffers were engaged and interested in what we had to say. Proud to have been a part of this important work with @NJMEA. #NAfMEHillDay

We had a great meeting with Elsie from @RepDonaldPayne office! We talked about the importance of funding for Titles 1, 2, and 4 as well the GAAME and Educators for America Acts. Thank you, Elsie! #nafmehillday
