NRCC State of the Union Text2Chat
January 27, 2010
Tonight the NRCC is hosting a text2chat program for tomorrow’s SOTU address for folks watching nationwide so that people can have a 2 way discussion about the policies being presented that will affect their lives. This technology has never been used before on this scale and what I think is particularly exciting about it is the fact that we are creating a dialogue with concerned Americans—not just a monologue as we’ve seen with the Democrats.
To participate, anyone with a mobile phone with internet capability can text “UNION” to 777218 to receive the link to the mobile chat room. In order to join in the chat, users simply text in what they want to share with others in the chat room. This technology allows anyone, anywhere, to engage with others about the policies that will affect their lives.
Following the State of the Union and the text2chat program, the NRCC will be hosting a streaming video Q&A session at www.nrcc.org/stateoftheunion, where users can submit questions online to be answered by Republican Members of Congress.
We hope you’ll join the conversation!
