Invest Some Time in Making Change
5 Calls
“Facebook likes and Twitter retweets can't create the change you want to see. Calling your Government on the phone can. Spend 5 minutes, make 5 calls.”
Phone calls are the best way (other than an in-person office visit) to effect change by contacting your representatives. Sign up for this phone app (or login online) and choose the topic you would like to call your representatives about. Enter your zip code and topic you are interested in, and the website will direct you to contact information for your Members of Congress. You will even be given a suggested script for your phone call. Fast and easy to do.
