No, it’s not that intensive. If you say you’re a constituent they generally mark you as one, unless it’s clear you’re aggressively phone-bombing constantly

For its ineffectiveness: emailing any rep that is not your own will guarantee a response of “thanks but no thanks” For calling your friends: there’s a ton of research on the effectiveness of relational voting, the same reasoning applies. You are the best way to convince your friends to take action

That’s right. You’re better off calling your friends who live in different states and convincing them to call their own reps

I recommend taking five to ten minutes to put your US rep, US senators, and state and local elected officials into your phone contacts so you can instantly call them whenever you get mad, which will be every day from now until we die.

You can do this at the same time as when you call to protest the genocide in Gaza, it's very easy actually with the @5calls.org app!

We've seen some scripts around to oppose KOSA, here's our take, short and to the point. If you're running into busy signals, try a local office (listed on 5calls.org or in the apps). If you get a vm box leave a vm anyway, they're tallied just like a regular phone call would be.

Republicans are attempting to drum up false outrage over immigration by scheduling a vote to impeach DHS Secretary Mayorkas with zero evidence of wrongdoing. They have just a slim majority in the House so only a handful of holdouts would prevent this political theater from succeeding #callyourreps

For those hoping for a new angle that will lead to accountability in Gaza, encourage your reps to support Sen. Sanders' foreign assistance changes based on human rights practices:

The goal was to keep the simple flow that people are used to now, but make it feel more like a modern iOS app. I would love your thoughts on if we were successful 😀

earlier this summer, Sylvia Swayne, 26, called her state rep in Alabama about the state’s “What is a Woman” bill — and learned he’d quietly resigned.

now she’s running in a Sept. 26 special election for the seat as the state’s first openly trans candidate. @teenvogue.bsky.social

This is legit scary. Marsha Blackburn is openly admitting that her bill KOSA will be used to drive trans people off the internet.

But Democrats are lining up to support it, and LGBTQIA+ orgs have dropped their opposition. WTF WTF WTF
