Lobby Day (Tuesday, March 17): We are excited to announce the California Asian Pacific American Bar Association’s 3rd Annual Lobby Day will be held in Sacramento on March 17, 2020.
Cal-APABA represents the interests of Asian Pacific American bar organizations and the over 14,000 APA attorneys statewide to promote justice and equality, advance legal and policy matters that impact the APA community, and enhance the professional development of its members.
Annual Statewide APA Gala (Monday, March 16): We will host a Second Annual Gala on Monday, March 16, 2020, the day before Lobby Day.
The Gala and Lobby Day are a one of a kind opportunity to network with Asian Pacific American lawyers throughout California and meet with legislators to address priority issues such as API data dis-aggregation, judicial appointments, and others.
Last year, the group met with the following Assemblymembers and Senators:
