Guest guest Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Dear Anita, Thanks for replying to Dorothy's request for letters to your congressmen. I see you have already enlisted your daughters and your dad. Umwah and a big hug. That's a good start, let's all of us ask someone to do the same. Here is a sample that I have written for my own use to send to family friends, you are welcome to copy it. Get your addresses here: https://forms.house.gov/wyr/welcome.shtml and http://directory.usayfoundation.org Dear Senator or Representative: Because there are people in my family who have cancer, I am asking you to vote for more research funds for NCI and NIH. We are asking for an increase overall and not the paltry sum that has weakened the resolve to continue valuable research. Americans would like to see congress wage a real war against cancer, but it takes labs and funds. We are speaking up because taxpayers see more money going to pork projects rather than to medical research. Do the right thing and vote for more funding for cancer research. (You can add your own sentiments or rewrite the whole thing tailored to your own needs) Sincerely, Name, Address, State, Zip Code, Email address (if you have one), Phone Number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
