MyCivicWorkout.com (which I recommend generally as an excellent source of no-frills SMART tasks) has a call guide for those of you whose Congresspeople are probably not usually swayable, but may be moveable on restoring foreign aid. In particular, it has short call scripts for electeds who are usually anti-immigration, defense hawks, big on the private sector, and/or genuine free-trade neoliberals, which frame USAID as helpful to those causes.

The scripts are here.

I've been calling my US senators and representative, and realized that I shouldn't ignore my state-level folks either. Obviously, they can't change federal anything, but I can ask them to make state policies/laws/guidelines that will help mitigate the awful of (insert whichever federal issue here).

I started by calling my state rep, and got an actual person, who seemed rather surprised to get a constituent call (?), recommending that I email the representative so she could see my concerns directly. OK, then.
(Not sure who yours are? This site will tell you if you put in your mailing address.)
