CORRESPONDING WITH YOUR LOCAL, STATE & NATIONAL ELECTED OFFICIALS

When writing remember to type on personal or business stationary, with return address on the letter. Identify the topic, clearly state your opinion and list the reasons for your position. Business Owners: Be sure to identify your company, list your products or services and include the number of people you employ.

Telephone calls can be effective when you need to contact your legislator immediately, mostly regarding an impending vote. If you do not get to speak directly with a legislator make sure you have a clear message that includes: your name, title, company name, telephone number, bill number, subject and how you would like the legislator to vote.

In addition, thanks to new technology, e-mail correspondence can also be effective – although a phone call, letter or fax are usually better – be sure to learn your elected officials the preferred method of communication. Be sure to include the Bill Number and Subject in the reference line. As with the above state clearly your opinion and list the reasons for your position. Business Owners: Be sure to identify your company, list your products or services and include the number of people you employ.

In all cases, ask the legislator for a response and thank the legislator for their time.
