Baltic Call to Action UNIT
(Please scroll down to sign up)
Ongoing acts of military, cyber and diplomatic aggression by the Putin regime—most recently manifest in Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine—translate into an existential threat to Baltics. NATO is the cornerstone that ensures security against Moscow's aggression in the Baltics. We as Americans need to ensure that Congress and the White House protect U.S. interests in the Baltics and Europe by promoting ironclad and unequivocal support of NATO, as well as robust and stable partnership between the U.S. and its Baltic allies.
To this, the American Latvian Association (ALA) has established a grass-roots group called the Baltic Call to Action UNIT. The UNIT's goal is to inform U.S. Government-elected officials and policy makers about American interests in the Baltics, especially on matters of defense and security to protect U.S. interests there on a bi-partisan basis.
On an ongoing basis, ALA's UNIT Management Team identifies, develops and issues four strategic Calls to Action per year, such as providing information to members of Congress about legislation key for NATO support, urging Congress members to join the Baltic Caucus, sending thanks to officials for their NATO/Baltic leadership, etc. We work closely with our daughter organization, the Joint Baltic American National Committee (JBANC), to strategize on messaging and timing.
WE VALUE YOUR TIME! While political and military events often require immediate response, we know that not everyone can commit to participating quickly on a consistent basis. We make it easy to act by providing a link to each of your three elected officials' Contact Pages, and text targeted for each official.
All you need to do is click, copy and paste—
done. With 4 only Calls to Action per year at a minute or so per official, this translates to 4 Calls x 3 officials (one rep and two senators) x 1 minute to contact each = 15 minutes per year!
Please fill in your email address, name and zip code where you are registered to vote, and we'll be able to provide you with your officials' online Contact Form in emails we send to you. If you don't know your full, 9-digit zipcode, you can look it up here from the U.S. Postal Service:

Once you sign up, you will receive an email with a link asking you to confirm your membership. This ensures you are who you say you are, so that you don't get spammed (and neither do we!).
Contacting your elected officials is free, quick and easy, and enables one of the most important things you can do for the Baltics: Ensure their security. Thank you.
