Dear friend,
Last week marked the start of Congress' August recess. For the next
month, members of Congress and many state lawmakers will be attending
community events, putting on town halls, and soliciting input from
their constituents.
In other words, this is the perfect time for them to accept FAMM's
#VisitAPrison Challenge.

We are asking for your help during the month of August to reach out
to your federal and state lawmakers and urge them to accept the
#VisitAPrison challenge. There are several ways you can reach them
during this recess.
1. Attend a town hall event: August recess is typically the time when
members of Congress host town hall events for their constituents.
These events often include a question and answer portion where the
member fields questions directly from their constituent. This would be
an ideal time to challenge them to #VisitAPrison. Visit your members'
website or contact their district office to find out the nearest town
hall event.
2. Visit a district office: If you are unable to attend a town hall
event, reach out to your members' district office and request a
meeting. With Congress back in the districts, there is a greater
chance that you will be able to speak directly with your member. If
not, try to schedule a meeting with their constituent service staff
and explain the #VisitAPrison challenge.
3. Write to your state and federal lawmakers: If you are not able to
secure a meeting in person, consider writing to your representatives.
Write to your representative and senators today!

The #VisitAPrison challenge got off to a great start - but we
need to keep the pressure on. August is the time to do it.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out to their policymakers. We
could not do this without you.
Thanks,
Kevin Ring
President, FAMM
