I was talking to a friend about currents events, politics, and government. They were at a loss as to what to do, wondering if there was anything that a person could do.

There are things that the average citizen, AKA, we the people, can do to effect change in the United States. The first is voting, that's the obvious one. The other is contacting your elected representatives.

Whether you voted for the person in office or not, their job is to represent you. So, don't be shy about telling them what you think. An email or a phone call to the people that work on our behalf in the statehouse and Washington D.C. can help immensely.

You don't need to be a Political Science major and write a complicated legal brief. A quick message from a citizen is enough.

Are there proposed laws that you're concerned about? Let them know. Your note may be the first opposition that the legislator has heard. If all our representatives hear is one side of an issue they are missing a lot. They need to hear more of our voices.

Remember, always be polite and to the point.

Here's how to get in contact with the people that are making decisions on our behalf.

In Washington D.C Wyoming has two senators in the United States Senate and one representative in the United States House of Representatives:
