Virginia Chapter CLE Training and Happy Hour

Every year RNLA does a Virginia CLE Election Law training at Wiley Rein in Washington, DC.  This year's training will be a bit different and we think, more exciting. There will be both a new CLE portion and a brief reception with leaders.  In addition to Virginia election law training there will be a presentation by the nationwide leaders on redistricting.  Virginia has been “ground zero” on redistricting recently.

On top of all this, after the CLE* training (which includes 30 minutes of ethics), there will be a brief happy hour with beer and wine.   EDO officials will be available to take questions on key races throughout Virginia and other leaders will be available to discuss the latest on the Kavanaugh nomination.  Please note that pizza will be served during the training.
