In addition, FAST members are expected to personally meet with their delegation members and staff at least once in the district, and determine the most effective way of communicating the League's federal priorities as often as needed.
Finally, FAST members are expected to contact League staff with any information that may assist in the team's overall efforts, such as member position on issues, anticipated committee or floor action, advanced review of committee markups or amendments.
