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

Should the U.S. create new teams and rewards to catch sanctions evaders?

This would set up a formal interagency team, build a partner-country contact group, and pay for tips that expose hidden networks helping Iran.

Should Congress get fast-track power to block Iran sanctions relief?

This would require standardized vote language, mandatory hearings, and expedited procedures letting Congress reject relief plans before they take effect.

Should the U.S. freeze assets of foreign helpers of Iran's oil trade?

This would sanction foreign companies and financiers aiding Iran's energy exports and freeze their U.S.-linked property.

Should the U.S. build new waiver and coordination rules for Iran sanctions?

This would create a U.S.-allied coordination structure, allow limited presidential waivers with sunset dates, and pay rewards for tips on evasion.

This helps make your message personal and more effective.

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.
