How to Help

Every message your U.S. Representative and two Senators receive is logged, helping to put SHINE on their radar. Each message from engaged constituents, demonstrates widespread support that lawmakers cannot ignored. The more voices we have, the stronger our impact—so send your message today and encourage others to do the same! Every Voice Matters!!

Your voice can compel lawmakers to take action! Members and their staff are strongly influence by constituent outreach. Every call you make helps ensure SHINE is prioritized—and don’t forget to encourage friends and family to do the same. Calls are quick, easy, and you can leave a message after hours!

Tweet/X Your Members of Congress and let them know that we need their leadership on SHINE or thank them for their support if they’ve signed on as a cosponsor. Click the link below for sample messages and a list of member’s social media handles.

We will contact you about simple but impactful ways you can help, like making phone calls and sending emails to your elected officials.

Stay up to date about our progress and help us spread the word about SHINE. Each like, comment, and share helps!

SHINE Stars are volunteers who work with SHINE leadership to organize constituent support for SHINE in their home states.

The SHINE Leadership Team and SHINE Stars are volunteers, but we are raising money to cover expenses associated with passing SHINE.

Members of Congress return home periodically. Check their websites or call their offices to find out about local events for constituents. Then attend an event, introduce yourself, and kindly ask them to support/co-sponsor the bipartisan SHINE for Autumn Act.
