It’s easy to have impact.  Most people don’t take action--when you do, you speak for many others.

Share the Facts -- Educate Public Officials

 

Legislators often say their constituents don't contact them often. They assume that each person who contacts them represents hundreds of others in their district who feel the same way. You can write, email, or call them yourself, or get a group of people together to multiply your impact.  Find out who represents you and how to contact them by clicking this image ==>

 

 

Ask Your Legislators:  Where do they stand?

 

Most legislators haven't heard about shared solar, and every State Representative and State Senator is up for election in November 2016.  Public officials tend to pay more attention to constituents in election years. Now's the time to educate them and find out where they stand. Here's everything you need.  Please report back! Let us know if they support shared solar, oppose it – or waffle.
