Think of an issue that affects your community and that interests you such as land use, commercial development, fossil fuel emissions, or transit options. Research the topic, and note the actions legislators have taken to address the problem. Writing to your congressional representative to express your views about an issue is an effective way to take a stand, regardless of whether the representative’s position agrees with your own. You may contact your congressional representative directly by visiting the Write Your Representative page of the U.S. House of Representatives Web site. First, prepare your message using the text boxes below.
