It's not much, but I can't just sit and do nothing

I have an hour+ commute to work every day, and just started using that time to call Senator Rubber-Stamp's (er.. Gardner) office and Congressman Buck's (I live in Longmont) office every single day. Topics for today were DeVos impending confirmation vote (Gardner) and Executive Overreach (Buck, who sponsored legislation just last January because of his deep concern over how executive orders were being used).

Got voicemail yesterday, but talked to live staffers today.

Gardner: 202-224-5941
Buck: 202-225-4676

I'm open to suggestions for what to "discuss" with them - I have space for several hundred phone calls!
