Over the break, you are being asked to write a letter of petition to one of your representatives. If you choose to write the president, address it to Barack Obama. Remember that you should ask for something to be done, changed, or provide your support to this person. Please be appropriate and take this opportunity to use your first amendment freedom. This is a rough draft letter so just try to get the form of the letter correct and the content there. We can worry about the small details later. Any questions please email or visit my website. Good Luck!
