How to contact your public officials
The Columbus Dispatch
There are a number of ways for Ohioans to contact their federal and state executives or lawmakers. The most immediate and effective is through e-mail.
"Snail" mail might not be the best means because security measures can slow delivery considerably. Fax numbers also are a convenient way to reach your lawmaker.
Some federal legislators provide immediate responses to questions, comments and concerns through an e-mail system known as "Write your Rep," while others have a form on their official Web site or have a specific e-mail address for constituents.
