7. Scott Peters! I USED to respect him

MANY years ago! Time to make some phone calls again.

Thanks for the list...I'll do it tomorrow. I'll call ALL OF THEM, again. It doesn't matter if you're a constituent or not, I have a way to get around that minor detail and it's worked for me since 2017. I learned the trick at an Impeach Trump Rally that year.

Since people move all the time yet keep the same phone number the area code and number itself is useless as far as connecting with anyone. My niece worked as a staffer in DC for Peters (of all people) and she told me that they really do listen to the callers and they do take note of your opinion and pass it on so this is not a waste of time. If you get a staffer on the phone provide a fake address obtained by Zillow in that particular county or state (Congress critters sometimes need a specific address). They never ask for it but it's good to have as a back up just in case. It literally takes 3 minutes to Google any county in the US.
