Social Media Policies for State Legislatures

NCSL Webinars allow attendees to participate in meetings taking place around the world from the comfort of their desk. They are collaborative, interactive and easy to use.

Most webinars will be recorded for those who are unable to attend the live meeting.

Many state legislatures are adopting—if not embracing—social media as a communications tool, however. There are many legitimate legal and ethical concerns about about what can and should be said. We’ll review the trends, policies and best practices and answer your questions on social media policies.
