Political Committee Volunteer A Political Committee Volunteer will help the Political Chair with the following tasks, directed towards Long Island politicians: The setting up of interview appointments and interviews for endorsements by the LISC. Preparing and reviewing questionnaires. Writing letters (both congratulatory and conciliatory). Help set up press conferences to announce endorsements, and arrange photo-ops. Helping to develop contacts with the media in order to publicize events. Attending cocktail parties and other social events when invited. Note, this is the most difficult part of the job and you need to be 21 years or older to participate. Occasionally appear at Town Board Meetings and Hearings, especially when one of our endorsed candidates is proposing legislation that deserves the support of the Sierra Club. To volunteer for the Political Committee please email Michael Cafaro or call him at 631-243-1127. You can also simply fill out our Volunteer Form and submit it electronically. The Sierra Club is a nonprofit member-supported, public interest organization that promotes conservation of the natural environment by influencing public policy decisions -- legislative, administrative, legal, and electoral.
