Letter Sending Instructions

Knowing what’s going on is just the first step. Next, we must all tell our representatives what their legislation and regulations will do to us and how we feel about it.

All letters to federal representatives and senators will be sent to your personal representative or senator, regardless of who you addressed it to. It doesn’t matter that your representative is not on the committee hearing the issue, it’s still going to go to him or her. Given this fact, we need everyone who can to write or phone or send emails, just so we get correspondence to the widest array of individuals.

In any letter you send, mention that you are a forest landowner or forestry professional. Our local representatives need to be reminded we exist. They hear far often more from urbanites who simply do not live in our world and therefore cannot have our perspective.

Any information or talking points CCFA has on a particular issue will be found in the blog entries discussing that issue.

Below we list the contact information for your representatives.
