COS Transitioning to Zulip :

COS National is transitioning from Slack to
Zulip.

Here is the link for the Utah Zulip site:

https://utah.zulip.conventionofstates.com/

https:%%//%%rumble.com/v5hzb8l-exploring-zulip-for-\\ efficient-communication.html

If you are having difficulty getting your
teams on

Zulip

, we now have several

people we can call on to make that
happen.  If you need help, reach out
to your RD and they can hook you up
with assistance! For our state -
Utah,

our contact will be Susan

Sigler

!  Let's get our teammates on

so we can make it the great
communication tool it can be.  We
would like to see a more robust
participation with this new format.

Using the

Zulip

App is much easier

than trying to work in a browser. Help
your teams use the platform in the
most effective way, have them
download the app here:

YOU ARE THE BOSS!!  Act like it!!!

Elected officials represent our community and
our interests, so let them know who you are
and what you care about!  Take time to
introduce yourself and your organization to
public officials serving your community

including both federal and state
representatives.
Make an appointment and discuss:

1-   Their stance on Convention of States.

could possibly get behind and support.
