Sample Thank You Letter:
 
As an AFSCME leader, I would like to take a moment to thank you for your support of workers in Wisconsin. 
 
Through your brave actions, a line was drawn in the sand in the attacks on working people.  While this was the right thing to do, we know that it was not necessarily an easy thing to do.  You sacrificed time with your own families and dealt with a great amount of pressure to stand up for what is right.  You have inspired us all.
 
Thank you again for standing up for workers’ rights in Wisconsin, the birthplace of our great union.
           
In Solidarity,
