Dear Friends,<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have a smart phone with text capacity that doesn’t cost and arm and a leg, there is a very simple way to send messages to your federal Senators and Representative.<\/span><\/p>\n

Send a text message to 50409 and type “Resist” in the message.\u00a0 Within seconds a “Resistbot” (I’m just the messenger – didn’t make up this name!) replies and asks your name and ZIP.<\/span><\/p>\n

Resistbot then finds your Senators first. Congress will be next.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It will ask you for a message that you compose to them. It can be very short or you can add information about yourself, a person of faith, or whatever you want to it.\u00a0 My first was only 8 words.\u00a0 Now I have the hang of it, I will add more about who I am, why issues matter.\u00a0 Once you’re done, press ‘send’, and the Bot will FAX your message to your Senators or Representative.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you don’t text or have no desire to do this, we will always offer options through our IMPACT connections to your elected representatives including state ones.\u00a0 But do pass this information on to your friends, kids, grandchildren\u00a0so they can become more engaged in advocacy, too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Faithful Five Minutes via tech is yet another way to be heard.\u00a0 Give it a try if you like.\u00a0 It’s powerfully easy to do!<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you!<\/span><\/div>\n
