How to Help?

SPEAK UP: Call & write your elected officials and attend & speak at public meetings & town halls.

All comments are counted! And don’t forget to say thanks when they do the right thing! Ask for what you want. Share a personal story. Be clear and concise.
Local – City Councils usually have two meetings per month & typically take 2-3 minutes of public comment per person. Email addresses and physical addresses can be found on city websites.

TALK ABOUT IT: Write letters to the editor, call in to talk radio stations, talk to friends, family, neighbors and co-workers.

Please go to www.rcnu.org (Redwood City Neighbors United) for excellent tips on how to write a
letter and a list of newspapers with web sites.

STAY INFORMED: Get on some mailing lists, attend meetings, support active groups & volunteer.
