Your message will cover 6 bills in Congress
A Yale field experiment found legislators shown actual district opinion shifted their votes to match it. The ones kept in the dark? No relationship between constituent views and how they voted.
Offices log, sort, tag, and tally incoming contact, then brief the member. Constituent communications eat roughly a third of House staff resources. Your message gets counted.
