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
I can confirm that when I did have the chance to meet with Tim Caine and told him who I was and for the umpteenth time I asked him about auditing the military budget, better spending on VA aid, and improving protection of our domestic utilities he remembered me and said to not let up reminding him.
