Reply #65: You can meet with their aides. Most of us can't meet with them in person

since they are in DC. I have met with my senator's aide twice in the local office with small groups of people on this issue. YOu need to be non-hostile and offer yourself or your group as a resource. Many of them are good hearted but simply ignorant. They have a lot to keep up wiht and often depend on citizen groups for info. Others are corrupt and don't care. That requires a different strategy.
