    Well, I wrote a letter to my congressman (actually congresswoman) today concerning school food. I suggested that more fruits and vegetables should be offered as well as more vegetarian-friendly foods. Probably get a form letter, but at least I voiced my opinion. Also, it doesn't help that she's a Republican! Oh, well...!

    Well done, one letter is taken to represent the views of a hundred voters. So it's a good start.

    I agree that it would be a good idea to start campaigning* a little closer to home.

    Good luck :)

    *For want of a better word.

    I'm in district 5, so my congresswoman is Ginny Brown-Waite. I probably should try to do something on the more local level, but this couldn't hurt!

    maybe you could talk to the school board...but i dont think her being a republican will hurt your cause any. In fact since its a healthy food choice they might support it.
