US Senate web site inaccessible

[csziggy]

It keeps timing out. I wanted to get my senators phone numbers so I can call them as early as possible tomorrow. I did get to the main page once, but when I tried to get to my senators' pages, all it does is time out, over and over.

For some reason a LOT of people must be trying to access the system!

3. Seems like all the Senators' and Congresspeople's web sites

and email servers are down. Did get through to WH though it was slow.

6. The President just asked people to call their Senators, in his speech.

Looks like that is what happening.

We have all night and all day tomorrow to call and call and call and call, over and over. :evilgrin:

Here is a site to find your Congress person contact info:

9. Nice resource, but it refers you back to the Senate site for senator info

So it doesn't help when the Senate site is not working. Which it still isn't, for me at least.

17. Actually, reps, not senators

(since Repubs rule the House) but senators would be good, too.

21. I had no problem getting to House.gov

For our Tea Bagger rep. he'll hear from me tomorrow!

7. Oh good GOD...I couldn't get in to senate.gov so I made the mistake

of going straight to John Cornyn's website only to see that there was a posted video "response to the President's absolutely disgraceful speech". Give me a fucking break. I feel like I need to shower now.

[Mz Pip]

10. I hope you were able to leave a comment.

People like Cornyn need to hear from people like you.

[chalky]

16. Since I made all the effort to wade in there, helz yeah I left a comment.

8. People in Republican districts need to call

THe GOP needs to hear from people other than their ardent supporters.

11. That is why I needed to get to the Senate site

I can get Bill Nelson's info from his emails, but I don't have Marco Rubio's info.

The link Horse with No Name gave is great - a PDF of all Senators DC office numbers.

24. Here is Rubio's phone # in D.C.

202-224-3041

[csziggy]

25. Yep - got that from Horse with No Name's link

I'd love to get his local numbers, too.

15. I did but there a far to many teabaggers in Chattanooga.

I asked my rep to do the right thing for once.

[Mz Pip]

18. They still need to hear

that not everyone supports their dumbasses.

[cilla4progress]

19. ExACTly

that's what I'm trying to do -- "Doc" (charlatan) Hastings! If I can't get through tonight? I am going to keep trying until I do!

[Sheepshank]

12. yeah, they just announced on MSNBC...servers are down. I guess the people were listening :) n/t

[spanone]

13. howard fineman said they were all crashing cause Obama asked the people to call....

[Mz Pip]

14. I tried to email the White HOuse

and that crashed.

My Senators and Congress woman are Democrats but I will give them a call too.

[boston bean]

20. i can get to Kerry and Browns website. nt

[csziggy]

22. Maybe it's only some of the senators whose constituents are trying

To reach them. I did get to the main Senate site once, but when I tried to look up Florida senators, no go, time out.
