When you call in, you can listen to the hearing but will be muted
Turn off the volume on the device you are watching the hearing on (broadcast will show up on calendar here) and listen using the phone audio (which will be real-time, there can be a delay on video audio)
When the chair calls for testimonies in support of the bill, dial 1-0 (one time only)
Be patient and an operator will come on the line to give you a line number (i.e. “you’re line 25”) – there can be a short wait until the operator comes on, do not dial 1-0 again or you will be removed from the queue
Once you receive a line number, you’re in the queue
When it is your turn to speak, the operator will call out your line number and unmute you (“line 25, please make your comment”)
Immediately start to address the committee – you ONLY get to say:
Your name
Your organization/affiliation (include if you’re a frontline resident or constituent – and name which committee member – if applicable)
