Question about legislation and who you can contact

[Beringia]

There is a bill in congress and I saw on congress.gov that it was referred to the Subcommittee on Livestock and Foreign Agriculture. I don't know how that works. Are only people who are in the districts of the congresspeople able to ask them to vote a certain way, or is anyone able to ask them to vote a certain way?

1. You can contact anybody you'd like. Some reps will ask for a

zip code to sort out their own constituents. Calling usually works.

2. Thanks for your reply. So won't they just disregard anyone who is not in their zip code range?

But you think calling may have an influence on them?

3. Yes, call their offices. Be polite.
