Emailing a legislator
Follow these steps to send a message to a Representative or Senator.
1. Find a legislator
From the list of all Representatives and Senators, find the member you want to contact. Then choose “Email” to go to that legislator’s contact form.
2. Verify your district
Enter your address in the “Verify your legislative district” section, then choose “Verify District.” Your district will appear under the button.
If you are in the legislator's district, you’ll see the district number.
If you aren’t in their district, you have 3 options:
- Choose that you think the system made a mistake and you are in the legislator’s district
- Email the legislator anyway
- Choose one of your district’s legislator to email instead
3. Enter your contact information
You’ll need to provide your:
- First and last name
- Email address
- Phone number
Enter your email address a second time in the “Confirm Email” field.
4. Write your message to the legislator
You’ll need to fill out both the “Subject” and “Message” fields.
To include a comment on a bill, enter the bill number and choose “Find Bill.” The bill’s description will appear. You can also choose your position on the bill: support, oppose, or neutral.
5. Choose whether you want a response from the legislator
If you want a response and you’re in the legislator’s district, you can also send a copy of your message to your district’s other legislators. Otherwise, it will only go to the legislator your chose.
6. Submit your message
Choose “Submit Form” to send your message.
After you submit, you’ll see a page with the information you entered. You can print this page if you want to keep a copy of your message
