UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
              CONSTITUENT ELECTRONIC MAIL SYSTEM

        We welcome your inquiry to the House of Representatives
Constituent Electronic Mail System.  Currently, seven Members of
the U.S. House of Representatives have been assigned public
electronic mailboxes that may be accessed by their constituents.
This effort represents a pilot program that will be used to assess
the impact of electronic mail on Congressional offices and their
mission of serving the residents of a Congressional District. This
initial project will be expanded to other Members of Congress, as 
technical, budgetary and staffing constraints allow.

       Please review the list of participating Representatives
below, and if the Congressional District in which you reside is
listed, follow the instructions below to begin communicating by
electronic mail with your Representative.  If your Representative
is not yet on-line, please be patient.

                    INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONSTITUENTS

     The list above includes the electronic mail addresses of
members who are participating in the pilot program.  However, if
your Representative is taking part in the pilot project, we
request that you send a letter or postcard by U.S. Mail to that
Representative at the address listed above with your name and
internet address, followed by your postal (geographical) address. 
The primary goal of this pilot program is to allow Members to
better serve their CONSTITUENTS, and this postal contact is the
only sure method currently available of verifying that a user is a
resident of a particular congressional district.

        In addition, constituents who communicate with their
Representative by electronic mail should be aware that Members
will sometimes respond to their messages by way of the U.S. Postal
Service.  This  method of reply will help to ensure confidentiality, a
concern that is of utmost importance to the House of Representatives.

        Thank you again for contacting the House of Representatives'
Constituent Electronic Mail System.  We are excited about the
possibilities that e-mail has to offer, and will be working hard to
bring more Members on-line and to expand our services.  We feel that
this pilot program is an important first step, and we urge your
cooperation and continued interest to make the program a success.

        This message will be updated as necessary.
                Honorable  Charlie Rose (D-NC)
