Various Events and Initiatives Throughout the Year
Greetings Government Advocacy Team, Chapter Legislative Affairs Chairs and PIHRA Community At-Large,
The Government Advocacy Team would like to invite you to virtual advocacy coffee chats in 2023. Typically, we plan monthly coffee chats working with Michael Kalt, CalSHRM Director of Government Affairs, members of CalSHRM’s public affairs team and local legislators. For instance, Assemblymember Kelly Seyarto, Labor and Employment Committee member will be joining us as a special guest at an upcoming chat.
If you are interested in participating in the chats, please email Dana Mayhew at advocacy@pihra.org or register for them on the PIHRA Calendar.
Our mission is to provide clear, balanced rules and guidance on employment issues that are essential to creating better workplaces.
Our Government Advocacy Team is making a difference in the workplace, Sacramento and Washington DC. We work in close partnership with the California State Council of SHRM (CalSHRM). We have become the voice of human resources in the Capital and the southland’s legislative districts.
The Team monitors and evaluates current employment laws, pending legislation, and regulations at the federal, state, and local level. Members of the Advocacy Committee are involved in drafting, commenting on, and testifying about current and proposed legislation. The Government Advocacy Team chapter chairs and their teams keep the chapters and the HR community informed of the newest legislative developments. Our mission is to provide clear, balanced rules and guidance on employment issues that are essential to creating better workplaces. If you would like to be a member of this dynamic team, join us today.

The Government Advocacy Team’s purpose is to engage, elevate and serve the PIHRA community.
