Sample Phone Script

Hello,

I am calling to ask that you vote to oppose ____________. (Fill in blank with the actual name and/or number of the Preschool Bill or Legislation.) It will hurt the state's economy and destroy small businesses owned and operated by women and minorities.

In addition, I am concerned that the most recent research studies show that children who attend extended daycare and preschool programs suffer intellectual, emotional, social, and psychological damage. Hurting children through this ill-conceived program will hurt the society at large.

Again, I urge you to oppose ______ (insert actual name and number of bill and/or legislation).

Note: If you are calling your legislator, be sure to stay on the line long enough for them to take your name and address so they can validate that you are a constituent.
