Contact Info for NY Assembly Members and State Senators Please contact
your
NY assembly member and state senator and urge them to sponsor the "Religious Exemption" bill
and the "Physician Prevail" bill - and to vote for them when they reach the floor.
It is also important to get Health Committee members to vote the bills out of
their respective committees.
The links and information below will make it easier for you to
contact them.
Note: Political experts advise that using the phone, sending a letter, faxing - or best: visiting a representative's office, are the
surest ways to get results. Emails, they note, should be used only if other methods are unavailable. And make sure, when you write to your representatives, to state that you are
a constituent in their district.
Additionally, could you please email a note to Senator Padavan and
Assemblyman Gottfried, informing
them of the actions you took on behalf of their bills?

Advice on
Contacting Lawmakers
Just a word of advice: As a former Member of Congress myself, I can tell you that volume mail, (or email) on an issue counts for far less than a well-written personal letter or email, however brief... personal letters or emails are far more impressive than a copy- cat message that comes in by the hundreds. Such messages are usually tied in a stack with a "total received" number on them, or just summarized as a number on a mail tally sheet. Even more impressive is a visit to the congressman's home district office, or a phone call to that office and to Washington. If the call is made to the Washington office, a person should ask for the congressman's "Legislative Affairs Assistance" who handles the
(particular) issue. The caller should state that he or she is a registered voter in the (whatever) district of (state) and wants the congressman to support the bill. They should also ask for a written reply from the congressman in which he states his position.
Bob Bauman, former Representative from Maryland (1973-81)
