Roadblock Submission Form

Using the Submission Form

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when contacting either the Bulldozer Committee regional antennae with a Roadblock Submission Form, or your elected representative directly.

Be concise. Messages should usually be limited to one issue. Title the submission with the subject, so that the person who reads it will be able to understand what it is about.

Be specific. It is not enough just to say that something is hurting or could damage your business. Explain the impact in simple terms. Explain how it impacts not only you, but others as well.

Be polite. Avoid presenting arguments in combative language. A rude communication may bring about the opposite of the desired result. Try to understand the side of the legislator, or of the government official. That will make it easier to convince the reader of the strong basis of your proposal.

Be honest. Use facts and figures to substantiate your position and make sure they are accurate.

Give background. Explain who you are and give a brief description of what your company does.

Request Action. Do not leave it to “I hope we can count on you to do the right thing,” or “I am unhappy about the situation.” Propose the specific legal changes you want to see being implemented. This is particularly important, since the Bulldozer Committee regional antennae – and most politicians – have only a small research staff. The more precise the legal amendments are, the greater the chance of getting them enacted. Cite the specific legislation you are concerned about. Give the number of the Official Gazette where it was published if you can find it.
