Make your views known to your elected representatives and to candidates for office. A short, friendly, succinct email, tweet, or similar message will do the trick. These days, it is easier than ever to reach candidates and officials. At the federal level, you can contact the incumbents (those currently in office) at:
- https://www.whitehouse.gov/get-involved/write-or-call/ (the president),
- https://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
(U.S. senators), and
- https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative (U.S. representatives)
Your state is sure to have similar options for contacting the governor, and state senators and representatives. Most elected officials and candidates also have their own web pages along with a social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, etc., as do candidates for office.
