the unexpected thing about Talking To Your Representatives is that it can actually work, if enough people are similarly mad about the same thing. you won’t get the elected on the phone. but they will hear about it from their annoyed staff, who might not have time to do anything else
Also helping people who want to be annoying do so in minimal effort, some of us may not want to write a whole letter but we will def copy/paste some talking points maybe edit and send. Did this successfully for a number of local policy campaigns in my city and it helps turn people out!
