I have a friend that's at the state senatorial level. He's always told me that his colleagues pay the most attention to letters (i.e.: snail mail) with signatures and that real attention is paid to numbers, both individual letters and letters signed by many people. He always suggests sending a letter yourself, getting a group together to each write personal letters, and then getting the group to sign a group letter. Regardless of your stance on this issue or your political leanings personal action is how we peasants get stuff done. The power we have over them is their jobs. They're always fearful we'll fire them so let them know you're paying attention.
