From having known people politically connected, people employed by these politicians and also those who like to sky scream about certain issues (contact your reps, senators, etc).
The only people they listen to are donors with money. Its the sad fact and its been admitted to by everyone I've known in LA politics.
Local DiamondDog couldn't even get his voice heard outside a college student working constituent services if I wanted to.

Marsha Blackburn has always been responsive to my concerns. Same with Bill Hagerty.

The only flaw is that most conservatives 8 hour or more shifts fall between 6am and 6pm. I guess we can begin picketing at 9pm, after our family dinners.

Does calling your representatives or senators really do anything?
Not one damn thing.
They don't betray the voters out of ignorance, they do it willfully.
It's exceptionally hard to primary out an incumbent and they know this. The vast majority of politicians who betray their constitutions still get reelected.

Went see my state rep Dustin Miller on an issue not long ago. Said it’s a great idea but he can’t do anything on it until next year bc they just finished their week in BR. I think they should be required to go once a quarter versus once a year for legislation.

NO.
Once they are in office, they don't care what you think any longer.

Sounds like a good way to meet a bunch of feds.
