Public Official Letter (350-500 words)

Please draft a letter to one of your current public officials (municipal, county, state or federal) who represents you. For example, a member of your town council, a county commissioner, your state senator, your member of Congress, etc. If you are an international student, please address your letter to a public official - municipal, regional, provincial, or national - in your country.

Identify the name and position of the official. Be certain that this person represents your town, district, county or state.
Please do not address any letters to Governor Murphy, Governor Hochul, Governor Malloy, or any governor, or to Vice President Vance or President Trump.
Select an issue of concern or interest to you. If possible, connect your letter to current legislation under consideration. If it is a piece of legislation that you are in favor of or opposed to, identify the legislation and state why you are in favor or opposed.
The letter should clearly state who you are, your hometown, that you are a first-year Ramapo College student.
It should clearly identify the issue and why it matters to you (and others).
It should offer possible solutions or creative approaches to the issue or problem.
Please make sure to thank your elected official for their time and public service and be sure to provide your contact information.
We will work with you on this draft to send a final version to the public official you selected in August/September once the program begins.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing you think you cannot do. 鈥斅�Eleanor Roosevelt

Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. 鈥斅�Howard Thurman
