IMPORTANT FOR ATTENDEES AT THE CAPITOL:
- All attendees should bring a drivers’ license or government-issued photo ID for the required security check at the Capitol. Each entrance to the Capitol is secured and visitors are required to present government-issued photo identification to gain entry (i.e., drivers’ license or passport). If you do not have a photo ID, security will not allow you to enter the building.
- Bring as few personal items as possible! There is no designated security to monitor attendees’ personal items, like coats, purses, etc. Attendees will also need to walk from where they park to the State Capitol, so dress warmly and bring few personal items to monitor.
- The State Capitol may be CROWDED. Please prepare for this and try not to block stairs and walkways. Please also try to allow those working in the Capitol to get to the places they need to go in the building.
- The City of Atlanta Fire Marshall limits the number of people who may enter the State Capitol at any given time. Once the maximum occupancy is reached, Capitol Police will not allow more guests inside. Georgia AAPI Legislative Day attendance will be on a first-come, first-served, space-limited basis.
