How to Write to Your Members of Congress

Use Talking Points to Craft the Right Message

  • Tell your personal story - be sure to include where you live, where you operate your small business (if different than your home), what you sell, any employees you have, and how your business has grown.

  • Research your issue and eBay's stance on it at www.ebay.com/governmentrelations. If possible, reference bill numbers.

  • Be concise and convey the purpose of your letter in the first paragraph.

  • Ask your elected official to oppose any new legislation that would threaten your small business success.
