TL; DR I have attached 4 letter templates for you all to send to your Senators and Representatives that advocate for better pay, paid leave, and election/voting reform What's this about? One of the biggest obstacles to a better world lies in money. It's difficult for everyday people like you and me to be directly involved in policymaking. We can, however, wield power in voting.
