As a citizen and constituent, your input and participation is critical to the legislative process. Legislators have a need to know your position on issues and encourage communication with them. Whether your communication involves a Commerce Lexington policy or your own individual positions, there are several do's and don'ts when it comes to contacting members of the General Assembly or Urban County Council.

For instance, it is important that you:
  • Clearly identify the subjects you are interested in, being as concise and specific as possible.
  • Put your thoughts into your own words. If you need help understanding issues or legislation, contact Commerce Lexington Inc. or another group that can assist you.
  • NEVER threaten or remind a legislator of electoral consequences of opposing your view.
  • Try to establish a relationship with your elected representative. You will have more influence as a constituent.

When writing your elected representatives, remember to:
  • Date your correspondence
  • Be respectful
  • Give specific and practical reasons
  • Be polite and appreciative
  • Identify yourself & your interest (i.e. small business owner, concerned constituent, etc.)
