These letters DO get recognized. Their staff reads and categorizes each letter received. The staff then informs the Congressman on the number of letters received per each topic. This is how the Congressman determines what issues are important to their electorate. This DOES influence what topics get attention and debate by Congress.

Ukrainians, lets band together and MAKE THIS HAPPEN! I’ve drafted a sample letter below. Feel free to use it, and use it often! Honorable of : I request that you support, with a sense of urgency, the supply of military weaponry to Ukraine. It is clear that Russia has championed the self-serving Minsk peace plan only to as a cover to consolidate and fortify its position in Eastern Ukraine. Multiple intelligence sources indicate that Russia is both well-positioned and motivated to launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in short order. Using a platform of deception and lies, the Kremlin has repeatedly toyed with our President, European leadership, and the UN, to launch a perilous new era of expansionism, which so far has gone largely unchecked. The weakness of our resolve has only emboldened a dangerous dictator who has an alarming disregard for human life and many aspects of moral decency. The US has repeatedly expressed our strong solidarity with the Ukrainian people. At this critical juncture, do not let us cower away from backing up our words with vital actions. Taking rapid and decisive action to quell dictator Putin’s imperialistic vision will save lives in Ukraine, and furthermore serve as a wise investment in Europe’s long-term security. As we observe the capitulation of the Russian populace to the Kremlin’s propaganda machine, and the ensuing escalation of nationalistic frenzy, our commitment to action today may even prove essential to avoiding a third world war.
