Problem

You provide excellent argument but when I dial the number I no longer see them, so then I have to rely on my own ramblings

Superb!

What a great resource! House identify key concerns and provides an automatic link to the appropriate representatives that we might be able to leave a message or send an email to. Thank you for making this possible!

Democrats Only

I was excited to download this app and use it to make it easier to speak with my Senators and Congressman about my views on upcoming votes. But basically, this app is biased towards Democrats. It would be an awesome app if it included scripts and information for each side of the issues. This would be so easy for them to do. But it seems that the developers are not worried about being neutral. It’s still a useful app though.
