Send your congress critter a post card! I just heard this on the radio.
Post cards don't have to be screened like anything in an envelope so they go directly to the congressman's office.

Sounds like a great idea to me! I'd love to see the media have to cover the delivery of THOUSANDS of post cards being delivered to someone like Bacus, Reed, etc.

1. I've Been Doing That for a While
I also send to all the members of the various committees who are planning to vote against what I support! It is relatively inexpensive, you just have to write a few words and, as you stated, they don't have to be screened! I hope it will be another way to flood congress.

2. E-mail and fax works, too.

By the way, I really HATE the term "Congress Critter".

4. Sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. I think it's a lot nicer than
some of the names I usually call them!

5. i use congress critter to include men and women. it's shorter.
p.s. i happen to be a critter lover (some of my best friends are critters) so i don't consider it a pejorative.
