Answer:

She believes they can raise awareness about the negative effects of the new law.

Step-by-step explanation:

We should note that she is unhappy based on the effects of the tax law, thus, her personal experience makes her feel comfortable sharing her opinion by writing a letter to a news source.

Also, the news source can offer her anonymity, so she doesn't need to fear threatened by those in support of the law.
