Whether you are a veteran Albany advocate or have never set foot in the state Capitol, we invite you to join us for BxD’s upcoming Lobby Day in Albany on February 10 - one of our highlights of the year. Nothing compares to the energy, fire, and pizzazz that arises when we’re all together advocating for policy priorities that would have such a large impact on the Bronx.
