I emailed my Senators regarding Net Neutrality this is their responses
- tmaly 10y agoI am not a pessimist, but emailing Senators rarely works. The Senator to people ratio is just too large. You are better off starting a change.org petition or some other media type campaign where you can get some viral growth and visibility.
- stablemap 10y agoI've heard ex-staffers say that emails are worthless but calls—in volume, as you say—have an impact.
- em3rgent0rdr 10y agoToo bad there isn't a standardized way for citizens to voice concern, such as an online poll conduced in a neutral manner. The whole call your representative this g always struck me as a waste of everyone's time, especially considering they just talley them.
- tmaly 10y agoMy good friend from high school worked for Senator Dodd as an intern in the late 90s. This was exactly as he described it.
- cladari 10y agoWith House districts as small as they are the staff track the local papers for mentions. Letters to the editor will attract their attention if you mention your Rep by name. If you are starting a change.org movement or some other district organization or petition be sure to mention it so the voice in your letter is multiplied.
