Publishing a letter to the editor or opinion piece is one way for everyday people to have their voice included in a public platform. You can reach fellow community members with important perspectives and information that can challenge or amplify narratives presented in the news media.
Additionally, staffers for members of Congress monitor regional news media for letters to the editor and opinion pieces that mention policymakers by name. Write a letter that gets attention by responding to a recent article in the paper, mentions lawmakers by name and makes a specific ask of them, includes 1-2 facts, and illustrates your personal interest in the issue.
