Contact Elected Officials

Project Vote Smart is a nonpartisan project that provides information on elected officials at the state and national level, including their positions and voting records. If you decide to contact your elected officials, here are some tips:

  • Be brief: one page or less.
  • Let them know who you are, who you represent, and what you want from them in the first paragraph.
  • Limit your letter to one issue and explain why the issue is of concern to constituents.
  • Provide verifiable facts and data if possible.
  • Be straightforward: ask recipient whether he or she will support specific legislation or regulation.
  • Personalize your relationship: If you’ve voted for them, supported their campaign, or have personal or business connections, say so.

Ask for action. It’s their job to represent you.
