Letters are the most popular method of communicating with a State Senator's office.  A telephone call is very effective as well.  How well your letter is prepared will determine whether your correspondence will be effective.  Following some simple steps will enable you to make the most of your communications to your Senator.

1. State the purpose of your correspondence in the first paragraph.  If your letter pertains to a specific piece of legislation, identify it accordingly, e.g., LB ___ or LR ___.

2. Write in a courteous manner; get to the point and include key information, using examples to support your position.  Don't be vague.

3. Each letter should contain only one issue.  Stick to that issue and keep your letters to one page.

To a State Senator:

SENATOR _______

DISTRICT _______

STATE CAPITOL BLDG

LINCOLN NE  68509

Remember:

bullet Address the senator properly
bullet Identify the bill
bullet Be polite and non-confrontational
bullet Be specific and stick to the point
bullet Limit your correspondence to one topic
bullet Keep your letter to one page
