The goal is to generate impactful grassroots opposition to the abortion ban that will be noticed by Governor Ivey and the Alabama legislature.
This platform will set out tweets to be sent directly to Twitter accounts of Alabamians. The tweets will have links to entries in this blog that will give information about this tweeting effort and solicit recipients of the tweets to join in the tweeting so that a "pyramiding" of tweets to reach more Alabamians will result. The blog entries that the tweets link to will set out various action and messaging against the abortion ban.
A key to success is for the tweets to be worded in a way that induces recipients to click on the link in the tweet.
The initial focus of this effort will be to obtain signatures of the petition at https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/women-for-alabama.
This effort will be organized geographically. Twitter accounts to send tweets to will be found by tweeters using follower lists of Twitter accounts in the tweeter's area that have a lot of followers. Examples of Twitter follower lists that might be used for the Huntsville, Birmingham, Montgomery, and Mobile areas are:
https://twitter.com/ALcomHuntsville/followers
https://twitter.com/GreaterShelby/followers
https://twitter.com/OTMJ_Life/followers
https://twitter.com/HomewoodHigh/followers
https://twitter.com/TrussTribune/followers
https://twitter.com/ALcomMobile/followers
https://twitter.com/MGMAdvertiser/followers

HOW TO DO YOUR TWEETING
A. General
This tweeting involves a non-standard use of Twitter, namely, the sending of large numbers of individually directed tweets to followers of other Twitter accounts (not your own followers).
A ground has been staked out with Twitter for this method of tweeting. See letter to Twitter @Support.
The object of this method of tweeting is to get a "pyramiding" of tweets going in Alabama.
B. How to send your tweets efficiently from laptops
In doing your tweeting, you are repetitively sending the same tweet message. This can be done very efficiently, at least on a laptop computer. Get the tweet message on your mouse clipboard, go to the follower list you are using for your tweeting, start with the first person on the list you want to tweet to, and do this:
1. Right click on person's Twitter name.
2. Choose "open in new tab"
3. Go to the new tab.
4. Click on the "Tweet to" button.
5. Paste the tweet message in the box.
6. Hit the "Tweet" button.
7. Close the tab, which takes you back to the list
8. Go on to next person, and repeat above steps.
You should be able to send 35 to 70 tweets in a half hour. Send as many tweets as you are willing to. Don't worry about any duplication that you think may arise.
C. How to send your tweets efficiently on smartphones
