Ben, interesting that you mention the idea of wondering what "a 21st century online-offline rally should look like," interesting topic and not something I've thought a lot about. My initial thoughts while not the most novel seem like they could be effective, if for no other reason than their simplicity.
Something like -- for each local area having a meetup, a public interaction with that region's congressional delegation before and during the meeting. for ex.)
@$congressman We are meeting at X date at Y p.m. to discuss Z, we would appreciate your joining us.
Then during the meeting, documentation of the meetings members, photo/video perhaps, and drafting of a letter to be sent to non-attending congressional delegates, making clear that this is a collective opinion that has come from this public deliberation.
And I'm sure there are many other avenues to explore that are not of the Schoolhouse Rock, "I'm just a bill on Capitol Hill" route.
