Writing to your local senator can help get your opinion heard.

Writing a letter to a senator is one way you can get involved and speak your mind about a topic about which you feel strongly. If there is a bill you either support or disagree with, you may write to a senator in order to get your opinion about the subject across to the Senator. No matter what the issue may be, the senator in your state will likely listen to and address any concerns you may have.
