  • Introduce yourself, including your relation to the district.
  • Let them know that you are worried about the Supreme Court decision, and you noticed they did not make a statement in response.
  • Tell them why abortion rights are important to you. (If you have a personal story to share, that may be powerful.)
  • Ask them if they will fight to protect the right to an abortion.
