Dear Editor, As soon as President Donald Trump won the election in November, his opponents in Washington, D.C. and around the country immediately decided they would block and derail nearly every aspect of President Trump’s agenda. The reason for this reaction is quite simple: Democrats are still smarting from the wound of their unexpected defeat on Election Day and they are determined to undermine President Trump at every turn. President-elect Trump won on November 8th, in part, because the American public wants Donald Trump – not Hillary Clinton or the Democrat party – to make key nominations, especially to the Supreme Court. The Democrats are hoping to silence and undermine the election results with partisan games and useless stalling. Americans, however, see through these games. Judge Neil Gorsuch has a sterling record as a judge. [INSERT SPECIFICS ABOUT THE NOMINEE’S RECORD.] Judge Gorsuch deserves a fair and swift hearing process. I urge readers of this paper to call [INSERT THE NAMES OF YOUR TWO UNITED STATES SENATORS] and urge them to vote to confirm Judge Gorsuch as the next Supreme Court justice. Sincerely,
Your Name Your City
