Those of you who call your Senators or Reps daily, what do you say to them?

Do you just talk about different issues, ACA, the environment, Cabinet nominees?

I called Scott about how I disliked Betsy Devos. Tried to call Graham--mailbox full.
I emailed both of them.

I downloaded an app that Michael Moore suggested called "5 CALLS."

Moore: It’s easy to make The Daily Call. To call your U.S. member of Congress or Senators in D.C., dial 202-225-3121 (or 202-224-3121 if busy). It’s even better to call their direct line. For Senators, find each of their numbers here: http://bit.ly/2kko0Ao. For the direct line to your member in the House of Representatives: http://house.gov/representatives.

Here’s some great news: Someone has created an app to make this very easy: Go to the App Store and get “5 Calls”. The app will dial the friggin’ phone for you and give you talking points for when you speak to your reps!

Told the rep I was angry that the senator wasn't actually in front of the issue instead of just hearing crickets. I am tired of my two senators-dems-who don't speak up enough. The only issue they want to speak up about is health care. Great, but what about all the other crap?? Today I am going to ask them to ask for impeachment proceedings.
