Follow-up to This Year's National Day of Action - Say Thank You!

In the period during and immediately following the March 2, 2010 National Day of Action 124 Congressmen/women and 32 Senators signed congressional letters urging increased funding for the Peace Corps for Fiscal Year 2011.  At the bottom of this page, you will find contact information for Senators and Representatives from your state.  If your lawmakers signed onto the Senate or House Dear Colleague letters, a note indicating that they signed will be found next to their name.

For lawmakers who did sign the House or Senate letters, please take a moment to make a phone call or send an email thanking them for taking such positive action in support of the Peace Corps!  Follow this link if you want to review background information and talking points used during the Day of Action, to help you craft your message.

Thanks to all of you whose contributions were critical to success during and after the Day of Action!
