redbirdI made these calls because in general, people are more likely to call either to ask for something, or tell the representative why the caller thinks they're wrong about something.
I was looking at 5calls.org today, looking for something I could usefully call state-level representatives about. The entry for fighting mass deportations started with something like, Gov. Healey is doing the right thing, ask your governor to do the same. So I picked up the phone and called Healey's office to thank her for not allowing local law enforcement to carry out this policy, and please stick to that.
I also called Rep. Pressley to state my strong support for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Senator Warren to thank her for her work with that agency. Warren doesn't need a message, canned or otherwise, to remind her that the CFPB is a good thing.
