Sample Letter below:

Dear Rep./Sen. X, 

It has recently come to my attention that the National Women’s History Museum has been seeking congressional approval for the land necessary to begin construction for more than a decade. I support recognizing the extraordinary contributions of women to our great nation therefore I support the National Women’s History Museum. As your constituent, it is extremely important to me that you demonstrate your support for this museum too. Women’s History Month seems an appropriate time to request an update regarding how you plan to vote on the National Women’s History Museum Act when given the opportunity to do so. I look forward to hearing from you. 

Sincerely,
