Du administrators could you create an action forum we can automatically go to and get numbers?

Thanks

I saw this on Joy Reid's show earlier this morning (Michael Moore was on as well), and Moore said that the number was XXX-225-XXXX -- which is correct? I assume the XXX-224-XXXX since you said you used it, but I just wanted to be sure. Moore seemed pretty adamant that it was XXX-225-XXXX -- you think this would be one thing you would wanna be sure you get right!

... then you go through phone menu, enter your zip code, and it connects you to your senators or representative office number. It was really easy.

I'm in SF and pretty sure my congresswoman and senators are already on board.

Everybody calls when they are pissed. I'm sure they would appreciate a pat on the back.

Call the congressman. When they ask for your zip code give a zip code located in that district.

Example: Jeff Denham represents district 10, which includes the entire city of Modesto (I assume it is a purple district, so more likely to listen) Google Modesto zip codes to find one. http://www.zipmap.net/California/Stanislaus_County/Modesto.htm
