Last week for ONE Act a Week, we asked you to voice your thanks to the 14 representatives who sent a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission in support of transparency. Nearly 200 of you responded! We collected your notes into this document tweeted it to them with this tweet:

Reps @RosaDeLauro @RepNormDicks @BarneyFrankNews @RepJJJr, 200 ONE members have something to say to you: THANK YOU! ow.ly/9hnH6

— ONE (@ONECampaign) February 24, 2012

We encourage you to do so, too — just cut and paste the message above into a tweet and direct it to a few of the handles below. We know you probably won’t be able to fit them in 140 characters, so you might have to do ‘em in batches.

Rosa L. DeLauro, D-Conn. — @rosadelauro
Norman Dicks, D-Wash. — @BarneyFrankNews
Jesse J. Jackson, Jr., D-Ill. — @RepJJJr
Marcy Kaptur, D-Ohio — @Marcy_Kaptur
Barbara Lee, D-Calif. — @RepBarbaraLee
Nita M. Lowey, D-N.Y. — @NitaLowey
Gregory W. Meeks, D-N.Y. — @GregoryMeeks
Donald M. Payne, D-N.J. — @Payne10thNJ
José E. Serrano, D-N.Y. — @RepJoseSerrano
Maxine Waters, D-Calif. — @MaxineWaters
Henry A. Waxman, D-Calif. — @HenryWaxman

Unfortunately Alcee L. Hastings, D-Fla., and Betty McCollum, D-Minn., aren’t on Twitter, but they get our thanks, too.
