I decided to try calling both Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris this morning. Both lines were actually super busy, and it took about 3 calls to get to a real person (since the mailboxes were FULL!) I wasn't sure how to phrase my phone call around the issues I wanted to talk about, but I found thesixtyfive.org had prewritten scripts on stances I really cared about that put what I wanted to say more eloquently. Overall, the call took about 3 minutes once I got through. I didn't realize it didn't take up a lot of time. I originally thought I would be on hold so much longer. I got to say what I wanted to, and they took my zipcode to record it.
I was able to reach Dianne Feinstein's line, but still have not reached Kamala Hariss (but after my experience, I feel like I can keep trying) I ended up settling to call about the DAPL pipeline in relation to Trump's new agenda on the matter. I feel that a lot of us accepted a premature victory, and this is an ongoing issue that still needs support. This is not only an issue for the Sioux, but for other American's who will not have clean drinking water and will see their environment in distress. I hope my call helps in some way. There are also still a lot of other issues I hope to call about when I have a free moment. thesixtyfive.org really helps with a concise speech, and saves me a lot of time in formulating a coherent small tidbit to share over the phone.
