2 quick questions. We'll turn your answers into a message that references the actual bills moving through Congress right now.

Should ICE publish regular breakdowns of who it arrests by threat level and criminal record?

This would require ICE to sort its arrests into clear categories—like violent crimes versus immigration violations only—so the public can see patterns in who gets targeted.

Should Congress shut down ICE entirely and transfer its duties elsewhere?

This would abolish the agency, cut off its funding, and hand its property and cases to the Homeland Security Secretary to manage during wind-down.

Optional, but recommended. Messages sound more real when they include one specific reason from your life.

Example: My daughter's school closed twice last fall because of wildfire smoke.

Why this actually works

01Lawmakers often don’t know what you think

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.

02Congressional offices are built to process this

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.

03Personalized beats template, by a lot

92% of staff say individualized messages influence undecided lawmakers — versus 56% for form letters. Naming a specific bill with your own reasoning puts you in a different category entirely.

04Silence isn’t neutral

When offices don’t hear from constituents, they ask lobbyists instead. Not contacting your rep doesn’t leave the scale empty — it hands the weight to someone else.
