U.S. Army Auxiliary Activation Project Supporters should contact their Representative and Senators on any issue they choose.  We recommend that Supporters should contact their Members of Congress on personal time and not while using US Government resources. Below are tips on how to contact them and what to say or write.
 

Writing Congress

Paper letters are a popular and effective way to communicate with a congressional office. Include your purpose for writing, including the specific bill or issue. Be courteous and brief. Include examples to support your position. Address only one issue in each letter and keep the letter to one page, if possible.  We recommend sending paper letters and not emails.
