Dear Member of Congress [Name]:
As your constituent, I am writing today to ask for your support of the Campaign for Judicial Integrity [in our state]. I am sure that every day you have a multitude of bills crossing your desk, but I ask you to pay specific attention to those pertaining to and affecting the judicial system [in our state] and our nation, that promotes stopping any judge from receiving payments from attorneys who may appear before them. Judicial campaign finance abuse in this country has reached levels that have created bias and have unbalanced the scales of justice. Clearly, this situation demands pressing and serious attention, including passing bills promoting Section 1346 of Title 18United States Code, which provides an intangible right to honest services.  The statute has been applied by federal prosecutors in cases of public corruption as well as in cases in which private individuals breached a fiduciary duty to another. Remember, these payments have affected every aspect of the court system, so now is the time for action and I urge you to get the amendment passed. [Insert specific bill here, if advocating for passage of particular piece of legislation].
As a supporter of Motion to Quash LLC, a non-partisan organization dedicated to advocating for Judicial Integrity and raising awareness of the Campaign for Judicial Integrity in Louisiana, I urge you to protect the integrity of the judicial system by supporting legislation on its behalf this session. [Or insert this important piece of legislation].
I look forward to hearing from you regarding the positive steps you are taking to advance judicial integrity in the immediate and long-term future. [Or what specific action you plan to take on this particular piece of legislation, etc.].
Sincerely,
[Insert Your Name]
[District or State]
