Make Your Voice Heard
Lawmakers don’t know much about what it’s actually like to run a small business.
Relate the issues to your own business experience and build the case with real stories, facts and figures. If any of the issues have impacted employment at your business emphasize this point. Don’t bring just your problems…...bring proposed solutions too.
Phone
Most calls will be handled by the legislator's staff. It's just as important to express your position to a staff member as it is to a legislator.
Mail & Fax
Elected officials usually learn about the views of their constituents through letters or faxes rather than face-to-face meetings. Legislators and their staffs pay close attention to their mail - especially mail from business owners in their district.
Letters should be brief: no more than a single side of one page and limited to one subject. Begin your letter by identifying the specific legislation, proposal or issue of concern. Include the bill number or title if possible. State whether you support or oppose the legislation and why.
Faxing your letter, instead of mailing it, is highly recommended. Mail typically takes four-six weeks to reach your legislator’s desk in Washington, D.C.
