WV Citizens for Clean Elections Update

 

Hello Everyone,

We would love to print post cards with disclosure messaging for you and your organization. The idea is that we would…

1. Collect the tailored disclosure message from you that fits your organizations mission.

2. Have the postcards printed for you (we pay the printing).

3. Ship them to you and you to give them to your members.

4. Have your members fill one card out and put it in the mail to a predetermined (targeted) Legislator

Sample Disclosure Messaging: (You may also refer to the notes from our last meeting)
