# How to Write a Letter to Gavin Newsom

Write and mail a physical letter to California Governor Gavin Newsom at his official Sacramento office address.

## How it works
1. **Edit the starter letter.** - 
2. **Preview the PDF.** - 
3. **Enter sender details; the Governor's Office address remains fixed.** - 
4. **Choose mailing options and pay.** -


## Form summary
Write a focused letter to California Governor Gavin Newsom, preview the PDF, and have PostalForm print and mail it to the official Sacramento office address. The destination stays fixed throughout checkout.

State your topic early, explain how it affects you or your California community, and close with one specific request. Include your own district, city, or organization only when relevant and accurate.

The governor's official site recommends its online contact route and warns that postal mail may take longer. PostalForm is independent of the Governor's Office and cannot promise that the Governor personally reads, answers, or acts on a letter.
