Tips

• Replace [name] with the recipient's name.
• Replace [Your name] with yours (in the family template).
• Subject lines are suggestions — feel free to rewrite to fit your relationship with the recipient.
• The petition sign-on email address (citizens.checkmate@gmail.com) and subject line (CHECKMATE) should stay as-is so signatures land in the right inbox.
