WEB SITES
To Look Up Bills, Contact Your Congressional Representative
or Senator, etc.

Your State Legislators
can be easily accessed via the web... just click on the following
website to find out who your state representatives are: http://www.legis.state.wi.us/
Once there click on "Who Are My Legislators"
and enter your address. It also allows you to access biographical
information, committee assignments, mailing addresses and web pages.
Keep in mind that a handwritten or typewritten and hand signed
letter is more effective a means for getting attention than an email.

- this website will help you access state constitutional officers
(the governor and cabinet members) as well as your senators and representatives. |

Thomas
To use Thomas, click on the link, go to the left column and choose
House Directories, then choose "Write your Representative".
From there you enter your state and zip code and the name and
district number appear and it lets you write your Representative
from the page.
For the Senate, the procedure is similar, except you only need
to enter the state.
