The Way Forward

Each day, every day--including weekends--I make calls to my three representatives at their D.C. number. Most of the time, I get to "leave a message", so that's what I do. One of my senators was appointed, and doesn't have a local office. The human voice in my congressman's local office, took my message, but after my third call encourage me to call the D.C. office as the local office was primarily for constituent services. I told her the issue I was addressing WAS important and the congressman's service would be to actually represent me.

Since I've gotten the script from 5calls (and adjust it to personalize it), I also go to each website:contact and leave a message there.

The only REAL problem I have is trying to decide--each day--what issue is my greatest concern. MOST OF THEM ARE! How about others--how do you focus?
