This happened to me in Trump 1.0 when I called in and the dude said, “wow lots of calls about this issue today!” and I asked how many is a lot and he said “Seventeen!”
Motivates me to pick up the phone every time.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.
TWENTY.
As in, they call that getting slammed.
So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.
TWENTY is a lot.

2400 an hour for the whole system is wildly low imo but glad it’s up rn!
Call and give personal stories. Meaningful pleas aren't going to sound like bots, especially if they note your name keeps calling with personal stories.
Don't comply in advance!
You can even put the app on your phone and dial from there. Every day!

It's within walking distance and has a nice diner next door for me to recover in.
Not a single time have I managed to get my call answered - and that includes being able to leave a VM.
I'm not stopping, tho!
Seventeen? Pathetic.
Apparently they know me now.
