Letter writing campaign |
| In the
near future, we will ask you to participate in
writing letters to your Senators and Representatives
urging them to support legislation that would help
secure a dedicated revenue source for the Indiana
Affordable Housing and Community Development Fund.
When the bill is drafted, reference the specific
bill number in your letter. We have provided a
sample letter (Microsoft Word document)
as a template but encourage you to personalize the
letter by using stories from your hometown. For now,
make personal contact with your legislators and
establish a relationship with him or her. Urge your
legislator to make affordable housing a priority and
share with them the Our
Indiana Home fact sheets. |
