Thank you!

To start out, thank you to all of you who took the time to contact your senators yesterday!  Because of those phone calls/emails/letters, our senators know that teenagers do care about the unborn!

For those of you who didn't contact your senators yesterday, you still can!  I understand that that was the last day of school for some of you, so it would have been hard to fit that in.  Please consider still sending an email at the very least by clicking here.  We are working on the vote count for all of the US senators regarding the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act to put up shortly on the nation page.  When we're done, we'll write a post about it.  We will soon have another day to contact your senators (I need to come up with a better name for that!) regarding either the same bill, a different one about abortion, or both!  So stay tuned!

Thank you again to all of you who are protecting the unborn!

In CHRIST,

Tomorrow!

So, I know I keep talking about this, but I wanted to give one last resource for contacting your senators.  I have already introduced sba-list, but I'll just give you a link to a specific page in that website: click here.  This will lead you to a web page where you can enter your zip code.  Press enter and it will take you to an email that they already have written for you.  Enter your information and personalize your message (remember what to include in your message!).  I would encourage you to read through what they have written and take some of it out (it talks about "my tax dollars" and since we don't pay taxes yet, then it wouldn't make as much sense:)).  Also, this way, you know what you are saying to your senator!  I really appreciate all of you who have decided to contact your senators tomorrow!  With all of us working together, we can help in the pro-life movement! 

If you are planning on contacting your senator in any way (phone call, email, or letter), please shoot us an email at wecantignore@gmail.com so we get an idea of how many people do this!

In CHRIST,

sba-list

I really hope that everyone will consider contacting their senators on June 17!  (If you don't know about this, look at my previous post.)  There are many websites that will help you with who to contact and what to say, and so on.  I'll share a few of the most helpful here:

First off, to find your senator, go to http://senate.gov/.  Look in the top, right-hand corner and select your state.  Both your senators will pop up and you can visit their websites, find their office locations and/or email them.  Also, I will have all the contact information for all 100 senators on the Nation page shortly.

Also, http://www.sba-list.org/ is a very good website!  I would encourage you to sign up for the newsletter and become apart of the community.  In their emails, they will have links where you can easily find your legislator and email them all from the sba-list website!

Different websites that I think I have already mentioned on this blog that are helpful are http://prolifeamerica.com/, http://aul.org/, and http://liveaction.org/.  On these, you can sign up for the daily newsletter to be aware of what's going on in D.C. and the legislature of various states.

Something that makes contacting your legislator easy is when a website gives you all the information you need and you practically just have to put your name and email in and click send.  As I have mentioned above, the sba-list does this and they have one going right now.  It fits perfectly with what we are going to do on June 17, so if you feel like you need help with how to go about contacting your senator, but you still want to do it, click here.  This will take you to a web page on which you can personalize a message that they have already written for you.  Make sure that you say your name and your age!!  By letting them know how old (or rather how young) we are, we can make a huge impact.

Thanks so much for supporting life!

In Christ,

Aubry
