1. If you are not interested in speaking to an office staffer, call
after hours and leave a message. I searched old threads on FR and found
this quote regarding contacting congress.
2. You may choose to speak to someone in the office when you call - ask for public accountability. It's not enough for staffers to tell callers that the congress person "feels strongly" and "agrees with" and is "working behind the scenes...". You may ask when and where the congress person will speak out against the attempts to remove a duly elected president. You may ask when they will be publicly demonstrating their support of the rule of law ("we voted for this president, congress doesn't get to replace him with their preference") and that you will follow up with them as long as the congress person fails to represent voters. Here's another old post re the fact that your call/letter "counts" more than you may realize.
3. You may write a letter, Tweet, and use other social media to hold them accountable.
4. We are in this for the long haul, so I will pass along the wisdom of other FReepers and recommend that you put your congress persons on speed dial on your phone. You may even tell your congress person that you've done so because President Trump is giving power back to the people.
Since congress ignored us during the Bush, Clinton and Obama years, many have gotten out of the habit of contacting their congress person; it was clear they weren't about to work for us. We have to teach them THINGS HAVE CHANGED.
President Trump has done far more than enough to win our support in his battle with the Deep State and Media. Imagine what a shock the Swamp will endure if we ALL CALL, WRITE, TWEET etc. at once! And we KEEP DOING IT until they learn who is in charge!
You may call them daily or every few days - however much time you feel is reasonable; if they aren't willing to support the rule of law, then contact them until they do.
The following website provides an excellent central hub for identifying and contactng (email, Facebook, Twitter, phone, letter etc.) your sentators and representative.
