Sample
email or letter:
I am contacting you to respectfully
urge your support and co-sponsorship of SJ Res1, the Crime
Victim Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
This critically important and long over-due reform to our
justice system will begin to restore some balance to a system
that for years has focused exclusively on the rights of the
defendant or the power of the state---but has ignored the
victim.
The rights established in the crime Victims Rights Amendment
should be the birthright of every American.
Please stand with your colleagues, Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona
and Senator Diane Feinstein of California who, in a truly
bi-partisan spirit, introduced the amendment.
And please, sign on as a co-sponsor of SJ Res 1.
Thank you.

Please Do This Right Away
- There Is No Time To Lose!
Let your voice be heard at this crucial point in the campaign for
victims' rights. We need as many folks as possible to send this
message to those senators listed below (even if not in your state)
who have not yet to agree to co-sponsor SJ Res 1. Also, please let
us know when you have made your contacts and, perhaps, share the
responses you receive.
You might ask the senators, "Do you support SJ Res1? If not, why
not?"
Thank you so very much. Together, we can make history!
