Just curious if people are letting their reps know what they want....

I tried to email mine & got a response that I'm not a constituent, WTF!?

I tried. Chucky’s people know who I am and basically said they’re not taking calls from the opposition

Call, don’t send an email. Calls hold more weight and when you email they’ll add you to their list to beg for money.

Good for you! Mine is Scalise (at least I thought) but the system rejected my email. I'll try again. I'm not even republican.....

Every week.


For the record … emailing a politician is all but pointless.
An intern/student/volunteer reads the emails and may or may not enter it onto a spreadsheet.
The politician won’t read it.


The contact hierarchy:

Visit the office (whether the politician is there or not) > phone call > handwritten letter > email

My district rep is a hardcore democrat

Her district was renumbered in 2020 but her stellar team hasn't even bothered to update her congressional website with the new district number.

I fully expect my message to go nowhere
