- Thank them only for what they did! If they didn’t vote for a specific bill, please omit the bill number from your thank you note. You can also use this as an opportunity to engage them on why they did not vote for this bill.
- If they are in the Caucus, thank them. If they aren’t, make sure to ask them to join.

Please add your own personal touch. If you are sending the letter in the mail, please sign it by hand and a quick note, or phrase. Options include: “Дякую!”, “Слава Україні!/ Slava Ukraini”, or just “Thanks!”
