If you thought writing letters before with Resistbot was easy, wait until you try our newest feature: AI-written letters. Currently powered by an integration with OpenAI, the new writer is simple and takes only a minute:

1. Send copilotWrite letters to your officials using generative artificial intelligence to the bot
2. Provide a link to a news or opinion article with a strong summary of your issue or a bill number (e.g., H. Res. 123)
3. Type a sentence or two explaining your position on the issue, like whether you're for or against the bill and why

And that's it! Sit back and watch the bot generate a letter for you. Here's a video of a user giving it a try. The more letters people generate, the better it will get over time as we continue to train it. Here's an example:

🧠 To teach me about your issue, please reply with a link to a news or opinion article or a Congressional bill (e.g., HR123) that will explain it to me.

I got your link. Thank you! Please reply with your position on this issue, e.g., stop subsidizing oil companies, protect voting rights, etc.

Monique Worrell should not have been fired, DeSantis should reinstate her and be held accountable for this act of an autocrat

The recent suspension of State Attorney Monique Worrell, the only Black woman serving in this capacity in Florida, is a troubling affront to our democratic processes. This action by Governor DeSantis, his second such move, not only disrupts local state attorney offices but also undermines the will of the voters who duly elected Worrell. Her progressive approach to justice, which includes avoiding minimum mandatory sentences for gun crimes and drug charges, and providing alternatives to incarceration for juvenile offenders, is a necessary step towards a more equitable justice system. The removal of Worrell is akin to overturning an election, a move that is reminiscent of autocratic behavior. It is imperative that immediate action be taken to reinstate Worrell and hold Governor DeSantis accountable for his actions. Upholding the principles of democracy and ensuring fair representation in our justice system is of utmost importance.

Think of the bot as a writer with a core set of values. When you provide a link to a news or opinion article, you give it something to read to educate it on a current issue. Say you wanted to tell your officials to pass Medicare for All. You can feed it a news article from Bernie Sanders, educating it about the issue and the benefits of passing it. In your position statement, you could say, "I agree with Bernie Sanders and want you to pass Medicare for All," and you're set!

Once your letter is generated, it will ask if you want the bot to make any changes. You can use natural language, and the AI will do its best to do as you ask. Here's an example from our prior letter:

Include information about how Worrell was duly elected by her constituents and removing her is like overturning an election

Good!

We've seen for years how some people struggle to find the right words and arguments to express themselves, and often this leads to writing nothing. First, we introduced our petitions that made sending a letter as easy as possible when you didn't know what to write. Now, we hope that by using AI and some initial thoughts and references from you, the beginnings of a great letter for an issue that matters to you are closer.

And like any other letter, these can be turned into form letter campaigns to allow anyone to sign and send it to their officials.

This feature is costly to support, so we allow everyone to try it a few times and expand use with a Resistbot Premium subscription if you get a lot of value from it. Become the most prolific letter writer for your organizing group!
