One Voice

I just wanted to say that this morning I wrote three emails: One to each of my senators and one to my President. A lot of times when I think about the public officials who represent me, I think, "What do they know? They have NO idea what's important to me!" Well, this morning, I emailed them, and let them know what is important to me with regards to couple of different issues. So whether or not they agree with or follow my sage advice, at least my opinions are now sitting in their inboxes, and not just swimming around in my head.  It feels pretty good.  I think I'll do it more often.  

Just FYI
  • If you want to email President Obama, to congratulate him, let him know what's important to you, or both, click here.  
  • If you're a New Mexican click on the Senators names for a link to their contact page.
  • If you are in another state, you can do a google search for your senators and find their website with their contact information.  It's quick, easy, and painless!  And you'll feel really good about doing your democratic duty.  After all, how can a democracy work, if the representatives don't hear from their constituents?

i totally read that wrong and thought you were advising new Mexicans (as in new born babies of Mexican decent or new immigrants to the U.S. from Mexico,) to write their Senators...which wouldn'
t have been bad advice either, just a little random. Anyway, love you and your political activism!
