RADAR Alert: Step 6: Now Tell Us About Your Successes!

If you have followed the first five Alerts, you have already requested a meeting with your Congressman. (If you haven't done this yet, it's not too late to request your meeting - but time is running out!!)

As soon as you hold your meeting, please report the results of your meeting to RADAR. Please answer these 5 questions:

1. Name of Congressman (or Senator) and state
2. Date of your meeting
3. Did the staffer or Congressman appear to be supportive of your request to call for civil rights hearings on VAWA abuse?
   • Yes
   • No
   • Unsure
4. Were there any particular sub-issues (false accusation, male victims, mandatory arrest, etc.) that particularly attracted the staffer's interest?
5. Other comments

Please send your information to RADAR at election2006-at-mediaradar.org. We will compile this information and provide feedback shortly after the November 7 election.
