Correspondence has the greatest impact when it is:
In an easy to read format, with a clear purpose stated in the first paragraph Regarding a single issue, not a group of unrelated issues Not attempting to begin a dialogue, which is better conducted on the phone or in person Directed to the appropriate office: committee business to the committee, and constituent business to the Member's personal office In your own words, not copied from a form letter or Web site From an individual, not an intermediary organization or Web site
