Please write to AS MANY of these people as you can.
Here is the sample letter, feel free to copy & paste it. It is factually and structurally based on the one distributed by the Bedford Stuyvesant Association, but has been altered slightly for wording.
It's a good idea to replace "Elected Official" with the name of the recipient.
