Everyone:
We just published this article: 18 states owe more in student loan debt than their entire state budgets, and the vast majority of these are "Red States". It is critically important that we get this news out. This could tip the scales for us, and shut down our critics across the political spectrum.
If you live in one of the states listed, will you please contact your local media, send them the link to the article, and ask them to report on it?
Say something like this:
Please have a look at this recent article. It is unacceptable that the people of our state owe more in student loan debt than our entire state's budget. Will you please report on this? Will you please ask the Governor to comment on this?

Don't be limited to our media list. Reach out to all the statewide media that you can think of. We need you to step up on this.
This is the your fight. This is our battle. This is where it will be won or lost. We have a million people now. This is a great muscle to have...but only when we flex it. Will you please do your part?
Best Regards,
Alan
ps. We'll be writing letters to the Governors of these states with our state chapter groups. Please join yours!
