MAIN ACTION: Write a love letter to your members of Congress describing how the Endangered Species Act impacts you personally. Instructions HERE. This is MOST important action in this post and will have the biggest impact.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: You have your letter! Most of them can easily be turned into a Letter to the Editor for your local newspaper. There are word limits (usually ranging from 100-350) but most can be submitted online. Just search your local paper name and "letter to editor". Please let us know if you get published!
TWEET: Tweet sheet is HERE.
CALL: Find your Senators' phone numbers HERE and your Representative's phone numbers HERE. It is best to call one of the local offices, rather than the DC office. Tell the staff member who answers that you want your legislator to oppose all efforts to weaken or repeal the Endangered Species Act. (** BONUS: save these numbers in your phone contacts to make it easier to call in the future)
FACEBOOK MESSAGES: Find your Senator's Facebook page HERE. Google your Representative's Facebook page. Leave a comment to an existing article saying the following:
I love the Endangered Species Act. Please oppose all efforts to weaken or repeal it.
