Legislative Resolutions Committee

The IASB Legislative Resolutions Committee is a group of well-informed and committed people who advocate the interests of board members statewide and facilitate grassroots activism. LRC members are appointed by the IASB Board of Directors for two-year terms. They also make recommendations for legislative positions to the IASB Board, which in turn makes recommendations to the IASB Delegate Assembly.
