Excellent! Thanks for taking the time to make a difference!

Yes, send something that is professional, and I think concise and to the point is important, too. These people do have a lot on their plates.

I think citing a few pieces of information from the recent GAO report on the pilot shortage myth would be good supporting evidence to points made in a letter/email.

Write.
Your.
Representatives.

Please
