Legislators/candidates for public office want to be elected. As a registered voter, you have the power to vote for them or their opponent.
Use your influence and let them know what you think about pending legislation that affects you and your family.
Lists of registered voters and their addresses are public information, therefore legislative office staff will know if you are a constituent and a registered voter.

You can contact your legislator by writing a letter, sending an email, telephoning, or visiting in person. Please note that meeting with an aide or staff person can be just as productive as meeting with your legislator. Don’t be offended if your legislator is not available for the meeting.
