We have officially switched off the Yankees and now are watching PBS’s Secrets Of The Dead, the Fall Of Rome. Galen was very harsh on Marcus Aurelius. Imagine what he’d say of Aaron Boone.

Here’s an excellent old school video on how to establish a relationship with your elected officials & lobby them more effectively.* In my four decades in Washington, this is the best “how to” lobbying video I’ve ever seen. I’ve used it to train activists across the country.
* Your results may vary.
* Your results may vary.
Calling your reps is only the 1st step. This excellent old Amnesty International advocacy video gives very practical next steps for turning that call into a relationship. It also offers great tips on how to keep the pressure up until you get what you want. This should be mandatory for civics class.

One of most important things you can do is check the website of your reps or sign up for their emails to know when they’re having a town hall. Attend the meeting & thank them if they do the right things — and give them an earful if they don’t!
