Advocacy issues can help you organize your Advocacy alerts and vote positions. You might, for example, set up three top-level Issues such as Privacy, Welfare, and Defense, and then assign your alerts to one of these three Issues. As an administrator, you can then choose to view only the alerts or vote positions that are associated with a particular issue. You can also choose to show site visitors only alerts for a specified Issue, using the Issue filter for the alert list components of the HTML Editor.
If your organization tackles a wide scope of issues, you can build a hierarchy, with secondary issues falling within top-level issues. You can also build an Issue Tracking Page to help constituents keep track of the issue-related alerts they have taken and those they still need to take. By linking to the tracking page from an alert Thank You page, you can keep your constituents in the loop for any given issue.
