legislative stuff

Okay, so here is what i think is the easiest thing to do to help the pro-life movement. all you have to do is write a letter, send an email, or make a phone call. especially as teenagers, we will get the attention of our legislators. what you can do is this:

go to your state legislative website (just google (your state abbreviation) legislature and you should be able to find it, so like for california, ca legislature. washington's website is leg.wa.gov) and find your district (usually there's a place where you can enter your zip code and find your senators and representatives). then get the addresses, phone numbers, or emails of your senators or representatives and write them a hand written letter, email, or call them telling your name, age, maybe grade and that you would like to ask them to vote for or against certain bills. i'll keep updated bills on here for washington, oregon, california, and the whole country. make sure you call the right legislators. for example: you would call your representatives for House Bills (HB) and senator for Senate Bills (SB). but make sure you call your state senator/representative for state wide bills and your congressional senator/representative for nation wide bills. i'll be giving you ideas of things to do in later posts!
