Policy makers tell us that they pay much more attention to constituents who take the time to communicate in personal ways. Moreover, we know one well-written letter to a newspaper can have a huge impact in raising an issue or voicing a particular policy recommendation. A well-timed call to a congressional staff member from a constituent has been known to convince a legislator to vote a certain way or has been very helpful in gathering critical information.
And that's where we come in. Contact Sean Meyer, National Field Organizer for the Global Security Program at 617-301-8065 or by email (smeyer[at] ucsusa.org) and discuss just how you can make a huge difference. We will talk about your interests and what kinds of lobbying activities make the most sense for you – making phone calls, writing letters, or organizing in the community.
