5 Calls

5Calls.org tells us "5 Calls is the easiest and most effective way for U.S. constituents to make a political impact. Once your congressperson forms a public stance on an issue, it’s hard for them to walk it back. The earlier they hear your opinion, the more likely it is you’ll make an impact. Calling is by far the most effective way to ensure that your representative hears you before they take a public stance."
