* Tips On Telephoning Your Representatives *

Ask to speak with the aide who handles the issue to
which you wish to comment.

After identifying yourself, tell the aide you would like to leave a brief
message, such as: "Please tell Senator/Representative (Name) that I
support/oppose (S.___/H.R.8___)."

You will also want to state reasons for your support or opposition to the
bill. Ask for your Senator's or Representative's position on the bill. You
may also request a written response to your telephone call.

* Tips On Writing Congress *

The letter is the most popular choice of communication with a congressional
office. If you decide to write a letter, this list of helpful suggestions
will improve the effectiveness of the letter:

Your purpose for writing should be stated in the first paragraph of the
letter. If your letter pertains to a specific piece of legislation, identify
it accordingly, e.g., House bill: H. R. ____, Senate bill: S.____.

Be courteous, to the point, and include key information, using examples to
support your position. It is usually more effective to have the letter hand written.

Address only one issue in each letter; and, if possible, keep the letter to
one page.
