The next few days are critical days for the University of Minnesota’s stadium bill at the legislature. The Senate Tax Committee has been considering a stadium bill since last Thursday and has still not passed it. The committee has defeated the Gopher stadium bill three times on 6-6 votes. The tax committee continues to meet today and the bill will likely be reconsidered. We need your help today to ensure that the Gopher stadium bill keeps moving through the legislature this session.

Your Senator is a member of the Senate Tax Committee and will help to determine the future of a Gopher football stadium today! We need as many constituents as possible to contact your senator to urge him/her to pass a Gopher stadium bill out of the Senate Tax Committee. Your voice can influence this decision!

Sample Letter for Campaign

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

As a constituent, I am writing to urge you to pass a Gopher stadium bill out of the Senate Tax Committee! This legislation will provide state support for a new Gopher football stadium on the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus.

As you know, the House recently passed a bill that would help fund a new on campus Gopher stadium. As a member of the Senate Tax Committee, I urge you to follow their lead. Please pass a University of Minnesota stadium bill and help us to bring Gopher football back to campus!

Sincerely,
