Write Your Representative - 2 views

  •  
    I have also added another site similar to this one. This is a place to go to find contact information for the Representatives from each area. Students can easily access this information for writing letters.
  •  
    Besides the contact info (which is wonderful), this site has a section for kids, which teaches them various things about the senate and more. It also has teacher resources. This is a great site, one which could be very useful to a teacher,even if just to gain some knowledge.
