In addition to making calls, we need to work social media to show opposition. We are specifically targeting Congressmen Cole, Mullin and Russell because they are on record as supporting the bill. In order for these individuals to see our tweets and Facebook posts, it is essential to tag them. To do so, simply insert their @username in the tweet or Facebook post. You may also wish to visit the Facebook pages for each Representative and leave a message on their page directly. See the sample messages below for examples of the proper way to tag. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>There are several hashtags being used to show opposition. They include: #OpposeHR620 #HandsOffMyADA and #StopHR620. To use a hashtag in Facebook and Twitter, simply insert in the message. Usually at the end works best but there are examples below using it in the middle as well.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>There will be Tweets and Posts from the official NFBOK accounts Monday through Wednesday so you can help by retweeting and sharing.
