Make your voice heard in the debate

Do letters make a difference? Experience tells us they definitely do. "Snail Mail" messages are more effective than e-mail notes. Politicians will weigh a neatly handwritten or typewritten, mailed letter more strongly than e-mail. Therefore, we urge you to write an old-fashioned letter to the Borough President, copying it to the Mayor, and the D.O.T. Commissioner to ask them to get cars out of Prospect Park.
