State Resources
When taking part in your own advocacy initiative, or preparing for events like our annual National Day of Action (each March), home district advocacy meetings (planned for September), or last fall’s 50th Anniversary Capitol Hill Advocacy Day, we try to provide Peace Corps specific materials for your state, and updates on lawmaker actions.
Members of the Gulf Coast RPCVs wrote letters to Texas members of Congress during a 2011 advocacy stop just outside of Houston.
State Resources to Support Your Efforts
Below you will find state specific materials updated as of 4/15/12.
Please note, when reviewing the actions of your lawmakers, the resources below can serve as an excellent resource through which to thank them for taking a positive action in support of the Peace Corps.
Do use this information judiciously, as a lack of indicated support does not always mean the lawmaker is not supporting the Peace Corps. For example, congressional Dear Colleague letters sent each March go to a key Appropriations Subcommittee. Some lawmakers may not sign such a letter because they are on the Subcommittee (or Full Committee).
Peace Corps Activity (Below): We have prepared one page summaries on Peace Corps history and activity in individual states. Please contact us if you have updated information that we should incorporate into these documents.
Congressional Delegations (Below): We have prepared one page summaries on Senators and Congressmen grouped by state: the summaries include contact information, committee assignments and key actions related to the Peace Corps.
Senate/House Scorecards (Below): These spreadsheets provide you with an overview on actions taken by your lawmakers over the years to show their support for the Peace Corps.
