I called mine today, Dick Durbin, & read the staffer the riot act about his lack of response to Signal gate! Then I emailed him the same. Then I called & emailed Senator Duckworth to thank her for speaking out. We need much more courage in the Senate! Cory Booker was magnificent!

I wrote to my Senator (Cortez-Masto) about her vote to keep the country funded which I disagreed with. Haven't heard anything. Also, send the DNC a note about my unhappiness with the party and nada either. Obviously, they didn't care.

My Senators. One never answers. The other does, but it takes a long time. Says they are backed up, because they never expected the volume of letters they are receiving.

So maybe you will get a response someday.

Also saw a video last week from AOC about calling. She was knitting as she explained that the calls are working. She says maga call consistently about everything so even if they are minority the reps are listening to 'enthusiasm' and consistency. She says Dems calls far less often in general - maybe because we think the common sense answers are so self evident we don't think we need to call - but she says consistent calling is how they measure enthusiasm and they are getting plenty of it from people. Hence Corey Booker matching that need for people to see someone do something meaningful.
