By calling all 4 Oregon Representatives today I learned that the volume of mail, calls and petitions on a subject bring that subject higher in rank of concern for that representative, and I’m sure Senator. I learned that all those online petitions I keep signing repeatedly add to the volume. All those form letters sent add to the volume.
My take away, if we want our legislators to do something about our concerns, we need to voice them often and in as many ways as possible. It’s data collection.
I’ve also learned that it is possible to leave a message with any representative or senator, regardless of zip code, or state, by calling their Washington DC office. We can make a difference but we have to tell them our concerns and opinions.
