It would be wise to consider sending the Legislative Aid a copy of the book with a 1-2 summary with key talking points. The legislative aids are incredibly powerful in determining the positioning on everything.

From my experience lobbying with Middle East Council of American Chambers of Commerce against the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act quite a few years ago, I was shocked to realize just how much soft power the legislative aids yielded in the corridors of power.

Okay, good point. I don't know anything about that. Tell that to OPA maybe?

Who’s OPA?

The Legislative Aid determines what gets on their representatives desk and often presents the key points n talking points and the position to take. They are slammed with information overload so making it easy to have a framework to present to legislative aids and representatives is very important.

From other experiences, books n letters sent to general mail of representatives never get past mailroom or secretary and are totally ignored in big tsunami pile of mail. A book mailed may never get past mailroom filtering systems and may never make it to representatives office at all.

The Orange Pill App, they're doing this

Ahhh Orange Pill App, of course! 🤪 Yeah might be good to relay, let me know if you want me to chat directly with anyone at OPA directly too.
