Advice on how to get members of Congress to actually listen to you

That’s clever, but not really relevant. Rep. Israel downplays letters and phone calls, but I’ve heard that a big enough pile gets attention. If the intern says the phones are ringing off the hook, that matters, although lobbyists matter too. And he’s right about Tea Party tactics. A lot of Republican representatives are skipping town halls altogether rather than answer angry questions about the Obamacare repeal. The fears this time are actually real - but the tactics will never again be
"unprecedented."
