Don't forget you can send a Letter to the Editor to your local media!
Our alerts will have a pre-written letter to the editor and these are so effective in educating the broader public, especially in suburban and rural areas.When you send your letter to legislators, you get the option to send the Letter to the Editor, with a list of the local media in your area.Click which paper to send it to, and it goes with your name and address directly to that paper. (You can click up to six papers).
The large city papers get numerous letters and may require more contact information, so instead, choose the small suburban and rural papers in your area.My suburban weekly paper has printed two of our letters!You can also modify and personalize the letter with your experiences before sending.
