Letter‑writing campaign information - 2015 PDF of 2015 Letter Writing Campaign Guidelines
Please consider writing about how corporate power has had an adverse effect on your community. If it doesn't make your letter too long, you can end with
a note that the move for a Constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United is gaining momentum and that there will be a public hearing later this spring in Augusta. Send us your letters, too! We
would love to read them and post them on our website with your permission.
Thank you!
