Submittals to Washington
This is the page of substance for the membership of TransparencyandAccountability.org. and our website.
Here is where we express our views, opinions, and recommendations to our elected Representation. Here is where we ask the folks in Washington to honor their office and us by doing what is in the best interests of We The People.
Participation requires a membership in TransparencyandAccountability.org. Your annual membership dues of $10.00 supports the administrative function of our website. Additionally, the annual membership encourages website visitors to have a “vested” interest in participating. We believe vested participation enhances that our communications will be high quality, serious communications.
Your communications are sorted by issue and your position on the issue. Once reviewed, sorted and organized, a single communication comprised of multiple inputs will be sent to the Administration, your Senators and your Representative in the House. Our process allows the staff of our Representation the opportunity to be more efficient. The staff can forward one document with 100 communications rather than reviewing, sorting and presenting 100 different communications to their boss. This process improves the chances of legislation being enacted for The People, not high paid, special interest lobbyists.
Early on, after receiving and reviewing a number of communications from the membership of TransparencyandAccountability.org, Washington staff members will see how we can help them be more effective and that we consistently conduct ourselves with the utmost of integrity and honesty.
Please go to the Let Your Voice Be Heard link of our site to submit your comments relevant to the issue you selected. You may submit your comment on every one of the issues presented or title your own personal issue and respective comment. If you request privacy, please do so before you submit your issue. You will receive a confirming e-mail based upon your submission.
This is how our request for Transparency and Accountability from our Representation functions - this is how we would like our Government to function.
Thanks again.
