Letters and press releases, personalized for specific congressional districts and representatives, comprise
the third component of the Home Energy Affordability Gap Congressional District product.
The basic letter presents a brief but cogent explanation of the Home Energy Affordability Gap calculation
and a compelling analysis of the Affordability Gap's impact on a representative's constituency. It concludes
with a call to action specified by you, the client for whom the analysis is prepared.
Personalized letters are most often delivered to individual congressional representatives with the district-specific
Fact Sheet attached. Often a state-level Fact Sheet is included in the package so that legislators and
staff can see the home energy need in their own individual district within the context of the entire state's
Affordability Gap.
Letters are not only personalized for specific congressional districts and representatives but also for
your organization and for the specific legislative action your organization advocates. Letters are delivered
to you in a format that can be printed on your organization's letterhead.
Personalized press releases fulfill the same function as the personalized letters to legislators but are designed to be delivered to
media contacts in each congressional district. Press releases have the same flexibility for customization as the letters and are also
often bundled with district-specific Fact Sheets. back to top |
