A Case of Who You Know?

From reading several posts here in the Waiting Room it appears that those who write to their elected officials get more done-their apps are suddenly found and processing speeded up and they receive their licenses a lot sooner. Maybe it is time for all of us who have waited at least 60 days to start writing and not stop until we receive our licenses.

I don't know who your State Rep or Senator is-just do a Google search or call the local newspaper for his/her identity and address. I would write-NOT email -a letter explaining your circumstances and asking their help to intercede with the DPS on your behalf. I submitted my application April 17th and will not be writing until after the 60 days are up so giving them 1 week to receive my application and cash my check I will start writing around July 1st. Good luck with your quest!

Go to the Texas State Government website and start looking for who you want. There'll be a website with e-mail address for the Gov., Lt. Gov ., Senators and Representatives as well as phone #'s and mail addresses for just about anybody who is anybody in State Government.
Having done that, have at it.
