Six Things You Can Do 1. On Tax Day (Monday, April 18 this year), distribute leaflets to people dropping off their tax returns at your local Post Office. Write your own leaflet, or use ones prepared by FCNL or the War Resisters League. 2. Write to your members of Congress and urge them to cut the military budget. FCNL provides an easy form. 3. Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. FCNL provides good guidelines. 4. Make a presentation to a church or civic group based on the materials prepared by the National Priorities Project. 5. Support an organization working for peace. 6. Join the local chapter of a national peace organization like Peace Action or Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF).
