"your letters/calls have to happen"

Please see my post #17--it's a copy of a letter to the editor that I sent to the Denver Post and the Washington Times.

Please feel free to cut and paste and modify it. In it, I tried to explain to people who might not know about CFR why it's important to repeal at least that portion.

I haven't heard back from either paper, so it may not get published. You might have better luck in a smaller paper.

I'll write a letter to the two Colorado senators and post it here today.

From what I have read, if you call your rep, it's more effective to ask to speak to that the "legislative assistant" in charge of CFR issues, instead of just leaving a message with the receptionist.

Let's all get one thing--a call or letter--out today!

So what happens when FR is threatened with litigation 59 days before an election? Isn't it likely that liberal incumbents will attempt to silence this forum with the full complicity of the government?

Excellent letter.

I've found that smaller publications are more likely to pick a letter like that to publish, and their influence is not to be despised- I have actually had local folks track me down to shake my hand in person, on account of letters that had appeared in the local press.
