Pissed at your Congress people call and complain #202 224 3121

The number above is the phone number for the Capital Hill Switchboard, it used to be an 800 number, but apparently due to overuse they nixed it. Well, I have unlimited long distance and often take advantage of the switchboard.

It's easy just call the number and ask for whichever Senator or Congress person's office and then they immediately connect you. However, Lieberman the republican Senator of CT's box is full, and his secretary is not answering the phone any more.

Anyway because I fully enjoy telling people like Joe Biden, Trent Lott and Thad Cochran, where to stick it, I felt like sharing this number again.

So do me a favor and call your Senators as often as possible, they must never forget that they are there on behalf of the people in this country.

2. You don't have to be "pissed"

or angry or filled with rage to call. You can be concerned, hopeful,or filled with postive suggestions. And you should still call.

3. True that, I call Kennedy, Kerry, Conyers, Tubbs, and Boxer with usually

praise and well wishes.

I agree, we have to make an effort to reward as well as punish.

5. Yep.

And it is very important that people such as yourself and our good friend Merh, continue to act as the conscience of DU, and keep putting these numbers in front of people! I appreciate the good work you are doing.

I just gave the number to my grandmother and she was very happy, and said she would start calling after she finishes the NYT every day.
