In reply to the discussion: Franken urged to reverse his resignation [View all]usaf-vet
(6,181 posts)77. There is a FREE web based FAX system that allows you to fax
their Washington office.
[link:https://faxzero.com]
1. Nearly every Congress member has a fax number. Provided by the website.
2. You can attach a pre-written document (.DOC, .DOCX, PDF). I use the same one just changing the Senators name.
3. A cover sheet.
4. You will need to supply a good email address and phone number for yourself.
5. You will need to go to you email address and "confirm" that it is you sending the fax.
6. You will get a confirmation when it has been sent/received.
7. It is immediate.
Works great.
