SO, WE'RE SENDING HER A... LETTER STORM!! Every minute Boebert's staff spends opening letters is a minute they aren't doing something else. We'll provide paper, pens, envelopes, and pre-written letters that you can use if you like. Please bring your own stamps. We'll also have snacks and free "better 4 all" swag! FAQ Do you really expect Boebert or the orange menace to change their mind because of these letters? It’s unlikely they will change their minds. However, there are still many benefits to this letter campaign: Every minute staff spends opening letters is a minute they aren’t doing something worse. The staffers and aides who help with tasks such as opening mail are often young people who may be more influenceable than the politicians themselves. Applying pressure may change how politicians organize. This is beneficial to us even if it doesn’t change their mind. Do Boebert and the orange menace actually read these letters? We don’t know. However, we have compelling evidence to suggest that Boebert’s staffers read and log the letters. Her Lone Tree office staff has brought up the letters one of us has sent during phone conversation. How many letters should I write? As many as possible. When should I send my letters? We recommend you send a letter once or twice a week for as long as you can. If you want, make a bunch now so you’re prepared for the next few months. Do I have to use the provided form letter? No. Feel free to write your own letter and be as creative as you like! Do I have to put my return address? Legally, you can put a return address that is not where you live. However, in Colorado at least, it’s fairly easy to get voter information. It’s likely that the politicians in question already have your address. It’s also important that you provide enough information for the office in question to know that you vote in their district; Boebert's staff has specified that for a letter to be officially logged it MUST have EITHER the full in-district address of the writer, OR the phone number AND zip code of the writer. Can I write to Boebert if I don’t live in her district? We ask that you don’t. We hear that politicians will use letters/calls from people outside their districts as evidence of harmful influence and stick even more to their original positions. Feel free to use our letter as a template to write to your own representative. https://actionnetwork.org/events/cloudy-with-a-chance-of-letter-storm
