What do you want Congress to act on?
Enter an issue in your own words, or search for a specific bill.
You do not need a bill number or a finished letter. Choose an issue you care about, or search for legislation you already know. Modern Action connects your position to relevant legislation and prepares a message for the offices that can act.

Review and send

Who receives my message?
Your address identifies the federal offices that represent you. The issue and legislative stage help determine whether the request belongs in the House, Senate, or both.
You can review the recipients and the proposed action before sending.
Can I change the draft?
Yes. Modern Action drafts the message from your position and reasons. You can edit the wording, add a personal example, or correct a detail before you send it.
Common questions
How do I contact my representatives about an issue or bill?
Start with the issue you care about or a specific bill. Choose where you stand, and Modern Action checks whether the next decision belongs to the House, Senate, or both before drafting the message for you.
Can Modern Action write the message to my representatives?
Yes. Modern Action drafts the message from the positions and reasons you select. When your issue connects to relevant legislation, the draft includes the specific bills and asks the office can act on. You can review and edit it before sending.
Should I contact all of my representatives?
It depends on what you are asking them to do. Some decisions are House-specific, some are Senate-specific, and some involve both chambers. Modern Action uses the legislation's chamber and current status to choose the relevant offices.
How does Modern Action know who represents me?
Your address identifies the federal offices that serve you. If you live in a U.S. state, that includes your two U.S. senators and your House representative. Modern Action combines that information with the issue, legislation, and available action to route the message to the relevant offices.
