		<description>I think a  template letter is a great idea. Do we have an Attorney that would be willing to guides us with verbiage for something like that pro-bono? 
If we could get a letter we could get to the interested folks  our in respective groups of interest and email it to our Representatives, state &#38; federal and our State's Attorney G's.</description>

		<description>Maybe Bob Purvin of the AAFD has some insight, since he gave Cuppy's an award for franchising at their last annual conference.  I'd be curious to hear what Mr. Purvin has to say now.  I think Bob Purvin needs to spend his time getting the FTC, the Dept. of Corp., and other legislators to stand by the laws they enacted to protect franchisees.  Maybe he could redeem himself in the eyes of all franchisees in this country.</description>

I think a lot of people might send letters if they had a basic letter to start with.
Is any one willing to write it?  Not just BFL franchisees but all franchisees could send a letter to their state representatives and we would have a bigger voice!</description>

		<description>The FTC IS DIRECTLY AND ABSOLUTELY RESPONSIBLE  for enforcing the rules they make to govern franchisors.  The Department of Corporations in California and it's equivalent in other states are suppose to provide protection for people in their state who are investing in franchises.  The enforcement does not exist because they turn a blind eye to the real problems and unless they are publicly challenged, it seems no protection occurs.  WE, THE PEOPLE,  need to make a lot of noise in order to get their attention.  I'm sure they don't want to be bothered, but they can't ignore us if we ALL join in this fight together.</description>
