Postcards with political messages will be delivered to several senators and members of Congress this week, sent by dozens of Windsor Terrace and Kensington residents.

People from the two neighborhoods gathered at Brooklyn Commune last night for the first postcard protest writing party. The 500 postcards that they collectively composed will be delivered to the Post Office today.

The subject matter ranged from the Supreme Court nominee to cabinet nominees to Steve Bannon's presence on the National Security Council to preserving the Environmental Protection Agency and the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

The date and time for the next writing party haven't been set yet, but that will be announced soon.
