How
can I send Congressman Paul Ryan an email? |
|
You can send an
email to Paul by clicking on the "Email Paul" button on the
navigation menu, or you can use/bookmark the following hyperlink to go
directly to the email page: http://www.house.gov/ryan/email.
|
|
Does Paul have a regular email address
so that I can send email messages
directly? |
|
Due to the
extremely high volume of emails received from individuals worldwide, a
regular email address would make it extremely difficult for Paul to identify and respond to the constituents he
represents in a timely manner.
In an effort to focus on improving
communication with the residents of the 1st Congressional District, Paul
uses this web site's email service as a
convenient way for 1st District residents to share their ideas and
concerns electronically.
|
|
Does Paul accept emails from
people outside of 1st Congressional District (in other words, people he
does not represent in Congress)? |
|
Paul can only respond
to emails received from residents of the 1st District. While Paul
takes into consideration all of the views expressed to his office, those
living outside of Wisconsin's 1st District will be referred to the
Member of Congress who represents them.
|
|
Does Paul respond to individuals expressing their views through online email
services like Vote.com? |
|
No. Such online
services generally do not require individuals to provide more than an
email address, which is not sufficient to identify them as residents of
the 1st District. As not all emails can be responded to via email,
sufficient contact information must be provided for Paul to respond via
U.S. mail, fax or phone.
|
|
How can I find out
Paul's position on current legislative topics? |
|
You can reach Paul's legislative
issues page by clicking on the "Legislative Issues" button

information concerning a variety of legislative issues by clicking

papers page.

How can I find the

|
Where can I find the
text or summaries of bills introduced in Congress? |
|
THOMAS,
created by the Library of Congress in 1995, allows federal legislative
information (including bill text, summary, status, and votes) to be
freely available to the public. Searches can be made using key
words or by bill number.
