If you have ever thought about writing to your United States Senators or Representative, I have a project going that you might be interested in participating. It is a “Postcard Project”. The issues are expressed in one or two sentences, printed on a label and attached to the back of the postcard and the front includes labels with the address of the respective sldenators and Representatives for the area of the person participating in the project and the participant return address label. The participant signs under the issue label and drops the prepaid Postcard into the mail.Why Postcards? I found letter writing not only takes quite a bit more time, but the letters take quite a bit more time for the recipient to read and absorb the Issue, if they even bother. They also cost 10 cents more to send.Short and to the point is more likely to get their attention and hopefully their action. If you would like to participate, I can be reached at either (707) 951-9332 preferably by text, or pjestlund@gmail.com. I prefer email. All I need is your physical and mailing addresses and your proper name.Postcards are provided with all the labels attached, your job is to sign your name under the Issue label and drop it in the mail. If you have email, I can send you the current list of issues. Anyone can ask to have an issue added to the project, I’m apolitical about the key issues, so I accept anything but slander or outright lies.#placement_573654_0_i{width:100%;max-width:550px;margin:0 auto;}var rnd = window.rnd || Math.floor(Math.random()*10e6);var pid573654 = window.pid573654 || rnd;var plc573654 = window.plc573654 || 0;var abkw = window.abkw || '';var absrc = 'https://ads.empowerlocal.co/adserve/;ID=181918;size=0x0;setID=573654;type=js;sw='+screen.width+';sh='+screen.height+';spr='+window.devicePixelRatio+';kw='+abkw+';pid='+pid573654+';place='+(plc573654++)+';rnd='+rnd+';click=CLICK_MACRO_PLACEHOLDER';var _absrc = absrc.split("type=js"); absrc = _absrc[0] + 'type=js;referrer=' + encodeURIComponent(document.location.href) + _absrc[1];document.write('');This same project can be adapted to local issues and sent to the Board of Supervisors, City Council, or School Board.PJ EstlundCrescent City googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('ad-1515727'); });
